Compomotive TS-17's

I sold some VERY nice BBS 16"s and got $1000USD for the set.

You have of coourse a very limited market, another 308 owner, that wants THAT wheel.

GLWS!

 

ALOT... I wish I was in a position to buy them. I would guess a min of $3,000 if they have good tires on them. People sell Speedlines for 2,500 all day for these cars and the Compomotive's I would say are more desirable That's just imo.

 

Well I have set of TS in 16's that I'm almost done totally refinishing. I wouldn't take any less than 2,000 for them. Most people want the 17's though so they would probably fetch more. That being said you'll have about 15 PM's by tomorrow and have them sold haha.

 

Here is what they look like. These are 17's too

I totally agree. As much as I would LOVE to have a set, if they are in really nice shape I think they are in the 4-5k range. For me it's the best after market wheel in any size.

 

Also try marketing them on the volvo forums. They have the same bolt pattern. My friend has a set of bbs e50s off an old ferrari race car on his volvo.

 

Hi just my .02 but these are realistically only $250-$300 each. You can ask $2,000 all year long and you will never sell them for that much. They are used wheels that are not exactly desirable. I'd sell them and buy a set of factory wheels.

Unfortunately that's not the case Mitch :/. I'd post them with tires for $5k as that's what I saw the last set change hands for some 5-6 years ago before 308s took a bit of a price hike. The 17" are by far the most desirable wheel for the 308 even exceeding the original 16" QV wheel.

 

I agree with that price of $250-$300 each.

 

Ebay will show the real market value on these. I can tell you that you'll be pleasantly surprised.

 

I let a similar set go for $300/wheel 3 years ago. I'm interested to see what you get.

 

Putting them on eBay seems fair to me. Can you post a link here when you do?
Thanks!

 

If you are referring to the Speedline Mistrals, I would rate those higher. Not sure about Compomotive pricing but a good set of Mistrals goes for $2500.

 

Yea I was referring to a set of mistrals. Reason I've posted so much in this thread is that I search and buy wheels all the time. I seem to collect them, so I follow the market pretty closely.

You can find a set of compomotives ts for under 3000 but chances are they won't be 5x108 in a 17 with correct offset for a 308. Obviously being a 3 piece you can change that around, but even that will run you a good amount. You'll have to source correct lips and new barrels to make them work.

 

Well, I wish the involved parties the best. But I have not seen the super high prices mentioned in this thread. I wonder if some are thinking of HREs or other higher end wheels.

Here is a link I found (from 2012) for a set of excellent 5x108 TS-17s (and even wider rims) with brand new rubber for $2300/offer. Rims in more typical shape with no tires or used tires will sell for less.

FS: Compomotive TS 17x8.5/10

Just trying to add a bit of realism to the mix. And again, best to all involved.

 

I agree and again when they're listed on ebay it will really show what a set will run.

What I can tell you about the set you posted is the rears were a -32 offset which is absurd haha. Also the tires are useless due to the fact they're too skinny and the owner wanted the "stanced" look. Also they were missing the center cap which are impossible to find.

Finding a set that will bolt right up to a 308 is a lot harder to find than people think. Also finding a set of wheels for 308 in general is pretty hard. Unless you want a set of 16 reps, wheels don't just pop up all the time. There a lot of guys with old TRX tires that want 16's or 17's and their selection is very limited.

 

compomotives!!

Oh baby!

 

How do you think about the pricing of these 17" compared to the 17" stock 348 wheels that were posted in the ads section a couple of weeks ago?

http://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/ferrari-parts-collectibles/448765-ferrari-348-17-rims.html

Of the 348 wheels, it looks like one needs refinishing...but those are only $500 for the set.

Are these just super-rare?

"A minimum of $3k" may be a bit optimistic

I would love to see you make some money off of these, and am interested to see where they go. We just may make ebay a spectator sport on this one.
