Default EB GTwheels

Ok , my new car has wheels that look very similar to EB GT wheels. Now does anyine know the value of EB GT wheels and the value of EB GT replica wheels. The wheels are in good condition, but as yet I have been unable to check the actually width of the wheels hence why i want to know a rough price of both.

They are genuine EB GT rims.

Very nice mate. That kit is also very nice too.

Those rims would fetch a bit of money as well.

As for fetching a price, glock/inferno (on the forums) tried for a VERY long time to sell his for a bit over a grand if i recall. Sure he's sold them now but they were pretty hard to get rid of.

Also, I have seen a set of replicas (typical silver colour though) that looked spot on to the EB gt rims. Not like the moffat ones. So unless they were re-painted genuines, copies might exist.

Nope, if you found that they're genuine.

White? Not a chance in hell. Genuine EB and EL GT rims are both champagne/gold in colour.
