Yea I know they are ugly. I want to know how much they are worth if I were to sell them? It's on a R3 I plan to purchase only if I can get them to lower the price to something more reasonable.
But the rims HAVE to go asap if I get it.

200$ for the seat seems reasonable.
Or burn them to help your karma.

abandon that R3 you are looking at. buying a set of R3 wheels is going to set you back about 1500-2k. used...plus the car is over priced and they wont lower it to something that is reasonable.

its more lucrative to keep those wheels as snow wheels if you do get it.

Well, what's the price of the car? I don't see this wheels (w.o. tires) worth any more than 600.

The car itself is 28k otd. I would probably got for brand new Brz around that price. There's like two arriving soon in a local dealership.

I'll take a pass on this since it's way overpriced with the imperfections and the ugly rims, I'll continue to look around.

28k for a used R3? It better be a really low mileage 2011. The fact that it doesn't have the R3 wheels takes at least $2,500.00 off the price tag on top of that.

You know they look a lot like my rims with a really bad paint job. If they are they are the Forge Aluminum Mazda Speed RAYs and worth about $600 each new, and very rare.

The do make a gold version of these Rims that are magnesium and they are silly money ~$1500 per rim. Are they yours? If so check the back of the wheel for markings, I think there is an RE stamp. I could take a pic for you tomorrow if you are really interested.
