What are OEM pony wheels worth?

[Hoytster]

Just trying to figure out if I'm asking too much for these wheels. Set of (4) OEM Pony Wheels with center caps. No curb rash, good condition overall. I've had these listed in multiple places for over a month and no takers yet. I thought at $125 the set would go quick, but maybe I'm asking too much

I think thats a fair price, I have two extra sets that are not so nice, don't know why I keep them
nice center caps are hard to find. I've been looking for a decent one for a while with no luck.
keep them, sell them in a few years when they are in demand for restorations.

 

[Hoytster]

That's what I was thinking about doing since I didn't want to go any lower than $125. I hate keeping crap around I'm not using but figured I could either sell them down the road to people doing restos, or make something for my man cave out of them......

I defiantly wouldn't go any lower than that. I would have thought you could have sold them for $250, but just like everything for our cars its up's and down's with prices.

To me? Nothing

I might throw one in the back of a truck with a chain wrapped around it to help pull me out of a snow bank or mud pit with my winch.

I am a horrible Pony wheel hater and I'm not sure why.

I"m not a fan of the Pony's either. I'd love to trade mine for a nice set of Turbines

 

[General karthief]

Well I don't like the turbines!

I think the problem is that nobody aspires to own 4 lug or 16 inch wheels.

Tires are getting hard to find even. Cooper Cobras and barely legal but really track tires, what else...?

My turbines are like new. Never could find anyone to buy them. Put 225x50-15 tires on them to use as spares.

I see them listed all the time for around $300 in my area. Not sure if they are selling, but if they have decent tires I think that's a good price. Once I get new rubber on my pony rs I'm going to list my chrome ponies with bfg sport comp 2s and see what I get.

Should I feel lucky that I own two sets of ponys, and one set each of turbines and ten holes?

maybe I like them a little in a retro kind a way

They are clean and priced low IMHO. Just gotta wait until someone buys their first 10-hole equipped LX in your area and wants an upgrade.

I paid $50 for one without tire and it wasn't even on that good shape. Need to paint it for my air hose reel.

 

[General karthief]

I'm still looking for a decent center cap for someone here, all my extras are scratched and broken

Air hose reel? You mean you are making an air hose reel out of one? If so, that's a great idea and I want to see pics! That would be worth keeping the set since it doesn't seem anyone wants to buy them.

My first mustang was an '89 LX with 10-holes. I so badly wanted ponies! I still think it's the best 16" wheel that came on a fox. I think you just need to wait until the right buyer comes along.

My '88 came with it's original 10-holes. Back in the 90's, 5-lug swaps were not common so everyone wanted the pony wheels. I remember seeing VERY clean sets selling for $600+. I think I ended up paying $400 or so for my set. I loved the look. I've often debated tracking down a set of 5-lug 17" versions and putting them on for that OEM look.

If you’re not in a hurry to sell, I would list them for $500 and just wait until someone bites.

I had my Cobra R's listed for $500 with an almost new set of drag radials on the back, and they didn't sell for a couple months. Then, I decided to keep 'em as race wheels, because they clear big brakes.
