Firstly do these wheels have any value?
steve m - 17/10/11 at 09:38 AM

I have 5 Rs wheels, as per the pic, 4 of them have beeen stripped back to alui, cleaned and semi polished,
i then painted the green inserts, and laquered them,

unfortunatley the laquer has affected the green paint, so that has bubbled,
i have left one void full of thinners, to get back to the alui, as i was going to have them all stripped AGAIN!

i was going to put them on ebay, but if any one on here wants to make an offer, for 5 straight 13" rs 4 spokes, perhaps for track day wheels, please u2u me

They are 6jx13x chx19

If not, what should i stick them on ebay for?

I am in Crawley sussex

Regards

Steve

I bought a set of 4 on ebay in used condition with not much damage for £40 so £10 each. Best bet is to start them at what you want and see if they go up.

Hi

Those are the rims that a lot of the 750Mc Locost racers use. If no luck on here stick them in the lower RACE section, pretty sure they will be snapped up and will save the messing around on the bay.

I bought a set for £40, blasted and coated them and sold them for £50. I'll never be a millionairre!

Hi

Just a word of warning....

If you stick them on ebay they look like capri laser wheels not genuine RS

Advertise them as RS style but not RS.

oopsy. I just spotted the 6jx13". They will be Lazer ones as suggested. There were some one ebay the other week that were listed as RS but were Fiesta Supersport rims!

Laser wheels have tapered wheel nut seats and the proper RS have straight side and tube nuts. I have a set of Fiesta 1300 Supersport wheels in the shed and they are a different offset for front wheel drive.
