As many of you guys know, im selling my 240 vert. Im thinking of selling it to this guy who wants to trade me r33 wheels as the partial payment. How much are the r33 wheels worth if I was going to sell them?
He says that he just got the curb rash on them fixed and he also just got them painted. Just checking to see what u guys think. Thanks for all your help

On this website people will sell them for $700-$900 without tires.

You could just give them to me and I'll be your whore for a day. :naughty:

I got mine for $650... :D

People really aren't willing to pay that much for them anymore, it's a shame because they're awesome.

R33 GTST wheels? Or GTR?

ManoNegra

07-09-2009, 12:44 PM

GTR
700-1000 it's the norm
but again, depends on the condition
I paid 1100 for mine about 4 years ago but they were mint
most have nicks/curb rash or are missing caps
RRR used to ask 1500 for them btw

Yep in the states it's about 700 to 1000.

Funny, becasue it's a hell of a lot cheaper in Japan.

Correct, they are forged but..................

one of my friends had them powdercoated and after only a few miles, 3 of the 4 wheels had spiderweb cracks.

I dont think the powdercoating process can effect the metal since the oven temps only hit 400f. Still to this date I have never heard of them cracking except for Omar's wheels.

Makes me wonder..

They're factory forged wheels.

also add to the fact that shipping them from japan has to cost a little bit, which is factored into the price for the buyer.

god fc's with gtrs is sooo right.

first time i saw fc with r33 wheels was on a zt build thread. it was a black fc with r33 gtrs and it looked awesome. best car i've seen with these wheels on.

no

FD wheels are 14-16 lbs depending on the production date

R33 GTR wheels weigh approx 21-22 lbs, not exactly light

What about R32 wheels?

I have 2 GTR and 2 GTS wheels. All have centercaps and one GTR wheel has light light curbage. What are they usually worth?

ILoveMyRHS13

07-10-2009, 10:44 AM

I've seen R32s go for anywhere from $250-$500. I honestly think they're ugly rims, and they're not forged IIRC. Try searching the for sale section.

They're clean because the original owner of the car had them repaired and refinished for $700.

r32 gtr wheels are great. they looked awesome on kevins s13, and they are very light if i recall correctly.

!Zar!

07-10-2009, 01:11 PM

They aren't quite my cup of tea. Maybe I've seen too many cars fitted with the GTS-T ones.

On their own they are cool. It's just that I'd rather have r33 wheels. R33>R34>R32

Weight on the gtr 32's is about 16 lbs even.

ixfxi

awesome.

certain things are just OWNED, meaning... no matter who uses them nowadays, it always reminds me of someone else.

For instance, white S13 coupe = alex chang. red s13 hatch w/ r32 wheels = kevin. black sil80 = benson.

I wont accept anything else other than the above. Its like a standard, everyone else is just a cheap modern copy.

I was the first to rock a champagne s13 hatch. ;)

OptionZero

07-10-2009, 01:45 PM

They're OK on S13's, a bit too small for S14's.

Get Panasports G5 C2CR's (wutever its called same face, multi-piece). Best of both worlds.

actually more like 25 lbs for the R33 GTR wheels, but they are super strong.

the lightest stock wheels are still the Z33 Rays wheel if you can find a set for cheap.

ixfxi

07-10-2009, 03:22 PM

sounds right, i sold my r33 wheels and z33 brembos because i started weighing everything and realized all of these parts are too fucking heavy for a car that i am building to compete with much lighter cars.

with that said, i am still surprised that 3 of 4 of omar's r33 wheels CRACKED along the spokes. it blows my mind because these are forged and considered very strong.

one can only wonder what happened to make a forged wheel crack?

Leo-kun

Well I did see a set in good condition going for like 250 on yahoo auctions jp.....but then again, it was being bidded on. Oh well.

Though to me, it seems kinda funny how an OEM set of R33 wheels goes for 1000 here in the states....I guess it's just shipping and taxes.

R33GTRs must be the only wheels we get cheaper that you U.S guys. I sold a set recently for $550, which is the going rate here. They're pretty common! Used Rotas cost two to three times as much!

thats because for you guys, its just another domestic wheel since the r33 is no stranger to the UK

Agreed.

Hey guys, do R33 wheels fit like shit on an S14 Zenki unless you add spacer's? I'm pretty sure they do, but I just want to be sure...
