trading in alloys

[Emmy]

quick question really, is there anywhere where you can trade in your old alloys for a set of new ones? was thinking of trading in the ones from my saxo (15"s) for a set of 17s for the new car. They cost me £600 new with the tyres (baring in mind they were decent tyres, uniroyal rain) there is one slight curb on the passenger side rim and one slight buckle on the driver side rim which could be repaired.
just want to know what ya reckon i would get for them in trade for a new set if anywhere does tradeins as more than likely i will be selling my saxo standard.

place in ballymena does i, think its called motorsport and spares

 

[seanbob]

Motorsports & Spares in Harryville by any chance??

 

[RComms]

i think WheelsRUs trade in as well, dependant on condition of wheels and what your buying etc.

they are down near Sandy row.

yeh seen them ,il try my locals first (streetracer and karmania) as ive spoken to the dudes in there and they are sound and if not il try wheelsrus or that one in ballymena. plus 3 stud saxo alloys are highly sought after as they dont do much variety in them, these were the only style i could find that i thought looked good.

Is it not possible to get Compomotive Mo's in a 3 stud pattern?? They look the biscuits

 

[Emmy]

yes although when i was shopping at the time i couldnt find nice compomotives anywhere then found these on performancealloys.com they are five spoke quite nice and ive managed to keep them in good nick despite going over a big pothole and slightly buckling one and only just managed to slightly curb it the other day for the first time in they year ive had these.

i traded mine in ages ago in procar ormeau road. Not sure if they still do it? and didnt give a great price.

 

[Gambit]

probably better of just selling them on here or something

 

[errigle]

As people have said, only places that will trade-in are Wheels 'R' Us and Motorsport and Spares.

Take them over too Baldy Dave at Motorsport & Spares, he will take them off ur hands, then he will get u wot ever wheels and tyres u want. He is pretty reasonable too.

 

[Emmy]

hmm well its a fair trek to ballymena but if i cant find anywhere local and if i dont sell themwith the car il call them first and see what he can do.

i'd be interested in trading in my 18s - i'm looking for a set of 19s for the golf... how much do you reckon my 18" RS4's are worth? good tyres, minor scrapes on the alloys themselves?
