Im selling soon the rims off my GTS to replace with the same thing. These rims are all scratched , 2 badly , 2 not to bad. I thought they may be alright as track rims for someone. I havent bought the new set yet and this sale will offset the cost for me a bit. I dont really no what to ask for them? Anyone intersted?

Why not just get them repaired mate ... I had a stone chip fixed up on a Coupe 4 rim recently, perfect result.
My old man got his wheels repaired at the same time, he had scratches pretty much all the way round all 4 wheels, cost him $500 to fix the whole lot and they look like new.
:yep:

He fixed the Coupe 4 rim for $99 ... 4 rims on my Dad's BMW 325ci for $500 ... 3 rims on my Mum's BMW 530i for $330.
Very impressive results ... :yep:

Yep ... trust me mate, you'll be stoked. I watched him do one, it's a very fine spray and there is no risk of it getting on the car.
I wouldn't recommend anyone that I wasn't happy with, he fixed 8 wheels for us and they are 100% PERFECT, you would never pick they ever had damage. At the price he charges I'll get him to fix any future scratches / marks straight away.
:cheers:
Stevie_D and his old man had Ossie fix some wheels up too ... if you want a 2nd opinion. It's the same company that fixed Wombie's rim (different franchise) and he was very happy too.

Ducking won't do you any good, she has a mean karate kick too ...

Besides, the wheels were fixed about a month ago, so they ARE still perfect ... :yep:

Thanks for the tip Nick. There all done and certainly saved me a few dollars. He had a new bloke on and he stuffed the colour on one of the rims, which he is comeing back to fix after a hip operation I think it was. But the other 3 are better than I was expecting. Its pretty hard to pick that there done. Certainly would go down that road again before buying new rims. Hell of a nice bloke as well.

The plan was to have the Coupe 4 and the GTS ... but the Coupe hasn't got an engine ...
:slap:
So I'm just bringing the GTS.
