How much are these alloys worth?

Hi,

Just swapped over to 16" original style alloys from 17" Japan Racing wheels (unknown whether they are copies or not, advice welcome if you know). The JR alloys are in reasonable condition and so far I need to see how I like the 16" tyre with more sidewall. I swapped because I felt the 17" with essentially no sidewall were very jarring on the roads I have around here and I don't have time to delve into the suspension fully to see what could be the issue (car is also lowered 40mm).

Anyway, looking to ask what people would pay for these: https://photos.app.goo.gl/rp6gVXUYI7xo5kZD3

Look at the new wheels on the car, for anyone interested: https://photos.app.goo.gl/3uIkQV256nDH21Si2

Depends on the condition of the alloys (scratches/scrapes) and tyres (how many MMs left till they are illegal).

Averaged used set with couple of scratches and legal tyres will sell for £500 Mark on eBay.

Thanks nitin_s1! I've been for a raz around on the roads that gave me the most trouble with the 17s and I have to say, while it hasn't fixed the jarring bounces completely it has softed them. Definitely live-withable until I get around to doing something more with the suspension.

Will stick them up on here/ebay in the coming weeks.

JR wheels are copies. Japan racing make similar styles of Japanese Makes. RAYS, WORK etc.
They look similar to TE37s. Worth a couple hundred quid if they're in good condition, more with tyres.
