I have a set of 4 superior turtleback wheels with the original center caps. Both wheels and center caps are in great condition. I am thinking about selling them. What are they worth?

Perhaps post in the Custom Wheel/Tire forum as well... _________________ Neil.

I'm selling a single perfect wheel for $125.00 shipped and then there's a set of 3 wheels also very nice for $250 or best offer and then Chadd has 2 set's for $450.00 plus shipping and all our ads have been up for awhile now. I think it's safe to say a set goes for $200 to $350 that's what I see a set going for nowaday's  _________________ $$$ HUSTL'N AIN'T EAZEE $$$

The OG caps are rare. If you're willing to wait it out, you should get the high end of the going price range. _________________ Mike
