E-series Simmons B45 value..?

[Tonko] · 02-11-2010, 05:49 PM

Hey all,
I have a mate selling his EF GLI with 48,000k's and b45 simmons wheels. im just wondering what i should offer him for them (for my XC) I don't see many available so it's a strange one... They are 16x8.5 all around and stamped '95.
So what are they worth? and whats the going price if anyone knows?

Hard to say mate. Maybe $1500 with tyres. Whole car sounds ok. Only 48000km's.

id say $1500 would be absolute top dollar. they dont seem to fetch the same sort of coin as fr's.

i know gemini pattern b45's even after spending 2000bux having them resealed and new outer rings are worth less than 500bux on ebay

As a comparison, i paid $300 2 years ago for a set of 4 15x8's with nuts & lock nuts with worn tyres.

Before this becomes a slugfest over not being originals and they are being being built in China by so and so, let me say, fom an aesthetic and visual point of view, they are stunning, they seem to be very well made and finished as good as, if not better, than the originals so time will tell if they are built nd engineered as per the previous generation - which I'm told they are. Anyway, enjoy the pics - this is the very first production set in 20 inch - yep, FR20s now, FR22s are also available to order as are the 19s.
