I have a set of 15inch turbines that I offered to trade my nephew for his 16inch pony wheels. He wants $175 plus my wheels and tires for his wheels and tires.

My rears needs replaced and my fronts have about 40% on them.
His 4 tires have about 40% on all four.
I originally offered him $125 plus my wheels and tires for his wheels/tires but he wants $175
I feel if I give him the $175 that I'm not really getting anything for my rims.
What is a deal like this worth?

Pony wheels in good condition are worth 300.00 without rubber. I sold my old set that were in good condition for 400 with well used tires. So I think your getting a good deal. Turbines are not worth much. Look on ebay and search 87-93 pony wheels.. and then search 87-93 turbines

Damn! I bought 4 nice Ponys for $110 with garbage rubber. They even had 2 nice caps! $40 more and I bought 2 more nice caps from E-bay.
Found four 225/55/R16 Pirellis for nothing {used car take offs} from work with 85% tread left too!
Put them on the kids '93 and they changed the look of the car completely- for the better.

Just some of the advantages of being in the parts biz!

Paid less than $50 for a nice set of turbines. That should give you a good comparative example.

Guess I just got lucky!
