Price. good price or not?

Does £500 for a set of 17'' bullets with Dunlops on as new taken of a delivery mileage car sound a good deal?

They generally don't go for that much. Check Ebay completed auctions for an idea of fair market value.

What April said ^^^^

Example.... i've previously paid £300 off ebay for a brand new set of S-Spokes with tyres. RRP £1200. You gotta love works upgrades and all the old parts being sold cheap on Ebay.

If they have runflats id say thats a half decent deal, its not a fantastic absolute bargain but not bad!

If the wheels and tyres are in brand new condition, then that sounds ok to me. I paid £460 for a set of four brand new 5 start 16" with Goodyear Runflats. Tyres alone are over £100 each (£175 from my local MINI dealer).

My 17'' S Spoke's were only £180, but then i had to get tyres! So it's not a bad deal, but you might find better if you hold on

Thanks, The tyres are Dunlop run flats, deliver mileage as well. I though they were a good buy with them being the later 17''. Are bullets cheaper second hand than s spokes?
