FEELER: Rota Battle 18x7.5 +48 5x100

I think I might sell of the Battles that I have. They are pretty thrashed and need to be repaired. I don't think I want to do it any more. I took them to wheel techniques a while ago and they quoted me $620 for the repairs. The whole set is in bad shape. These are the Advan Model T5 replicas and they are pretty rare to come by. They have Fullrun tires on them (235/40/18 IIRC) and they have quite a bit of tread left on them.

I'll gets some pictures up later today. Like I said, they are in pretty bad shape. If I had to guess I would say that these came off a car the rolled a few times. Even though the tires still hold air, I would not drive on these.

I'll get some pictures up later today if anyone wants to see.

If I were to sell them I would be looking to get $300. Still kinda debating on whether or not I want to keep them, maybe someone will want them more than I do.

you probably gonna need to lower the price on the wheels...300+620 is over $900 for a used set of 18x7.5 rotas...i think u can get brand new rotas for cheaper...

I thought I turned on some notifications for this but I didn't get any so... Yeah. Sorry about the late response. I know you guys are dying to know more.

Not quite. Granted these are used, after the repairs they would be essentially brand new but with some history. And if you were to buy a new set or Rotas, in this size, Wheeldude has one style for $725 and the cheapest tire is $65. So a new set with tires costs a minimum of $985. Not to mention that these wheels have been discontinued and are nearly impossible to find. I'm not saying this is a great deal, but I think it is fair.

Yeah, they need quite a bit of work.

Indeed. Hell if someone is looking for a set of tires, I can sell just the tires without the crappy wheels.
