The question is what are they worth, they're not perfect but have a nice 'patina' and all have centre caps, two have Goodyear Efficient Grip tyres that have done barely 200mls and two have Uniroyals about two thirds worn.
Any opinions appreciated.

Thanks for the advice Roach, I'm really surprised at the price these parts are going for now.

I ended up only getting £100 for the alloys/tyres, but the Pirelli centre caps with the embossed logos sold for £220.
I think people are asking too much for them online, they are common as muck wheels unless they are the 8P versions or 15" ones.

Ask a massive amount and wait, or if you really want them gone then ask a sensible amount so they sell - your choice.
If I want something gone I scour the internet with a "buyers head on" to get a feel what's available out there if I was a buyer, then undercut everyone with a slightly lower price. My theory is that the next person looking for a set who starts the looking process will buy them , job done.

I ran a Mk1 for twenty years and always had 14" wheels, steels to start and then I inherited these Pirellis, now I've put the original 13"wheels back the car is quieter, the steering is lighter to a point where I wouldn't consider having power assisted if I could and it's much more compliant over our bumpy roads, if only I had known before.
