Old School Mesh Wheels

[GT240R]

I have had these for a while and never used them because I was 4 lug, and wanted to know what they are worth. Epsilon 16 x 9.5J ET27 (((IIRC))) Made in Japan

1 pair/2 wheels

Thanks in advance.

doesn't seem like many 5lug guys wanna run 16's anymore.
if they were 4 lug i woulda picked em up. not real sure g/l with the sale if you do sell them.

You should give them to me! :p I probably couldn't find another pair......EVER, but they would be dope to re-finish and mount on the wall in the garage or some shit. I think the primary problem with selling those wheels is that you would never, EVER be able to find a matching pair. Besides that they are beat. I wouldn't think you could get more than $200 for those wheels and with the market today you might be lucky to even get $100. Shit just isn't selling like it used to, even rare shit. Hell I can get a pair of good condition 15" low offset longchamps for $200 or probably even negotiate for less right now.

i'd throw you a few bux, maybe they'd look good on my rx7 or something.

i'd say 100-150, tops?

[ZilviaKid]

oh god i cant even imagine prepping that. LOOK AT ALL THE HOLES!

Sandblast it
Paint centers gold
???????
PROFIT!

Epsilons aren't really worth much unless they are lower offset and really clean

Otherwise I would just treat as any other old mesh wheel

A pair - $20
A set - $50

i've got a set of epsilons, i paid decent money for them like 3 years ago . if you wanna sell i could use them as barrel spares.

I've seen the same style and very similarly sized Epsilons for sale on Craigslist and Club4ag a few times. Also, I've seen them being sold by places like Takumi Project and Wheel Choice. They're out there, so finding a matching pair is very possible.
They don't look beat up like you said (at least the one in the pic isn't). The lip looks good; just needs a good stiff polishing. Polish the lips and respray the centers and they're good to go.

hahahahahaha, shut the fuck up. Stupid noobs.

It needs to be taken apart and completely re-finished. That qualifies as beat up in my book. It doesn't LOOK like the lips need to be replaced at least. I have not seen 16" 5x114.3 epsilons anywhere for as long as I remember. I have seen a few 15" 4 and 5 luggers.

my epsilons are pieced together , 16' four lugs.

i got some baller as 15" Epsilons that are getting refinished as we speak. should be done this coming week. saw a sneek peek of them and they look badass!

:tweak: could have been a type-o?

[stlthftr1]

did you end up keeping these?

[OTG Vinyl]

hahahahahaha, shut the fuck up. Stupid noobs.

Because people who waste their lives away on forums are any more knowledgeable about cheap wheels? :ughd:

Hell, I've got a set of Enkei 4x114.3 92's that I bought for something like $600 and haven't even used. I haven't even been able to sell them at $400. Seems like the only people who want meshes are people who don't want to spend any money. You'd be lucky to sell a pair of those for $300 if they were like-new.

[GT240R]

I will probably try to get rid of them for 250+shipping with decent, but old tires.

:tweak: could have been a type-o?

you mean typo? As in typographical error?

Also, if you think trying to sell mesh wheels is hard, i cant even GIVE away my Niche Bahns:

except mine are 17"

dude if it was easier to find 16" tires in decent sizes i'd rock em. i get 17" takeoffs for days and never see a pair of 16s in less than a 55 series profile

i'll take em! (for free!) dude when i was in high school every dude with a civic had a giant boner for those wheels.

[stlthftr1]

and i prefer the 16'' size , but it is hard to get decent sizing if you don't want to order off the internet....

to the o.p.,how much would you want shipped without tires? to 34116

Yes.
You have 151 posts in the 21 days since you joined. I'd say you're doing a great job at trying to "waste your life away on a forum".
