Default Original EL GT rims, how much?

I passed on a set of immaculate original EL GT rims yesterday that were going cheap. They were on an XR6 I bought, and I didn't want them. How much are they worth? Just wondering how hard I should kick myself...

Depending on condition, 800-1200 for a few scratches etc. Immaculate rims About 1500 if they are picture purfect I'd reckon

I would have taken them with the car, then sold them off. They are a desirable wheel...

Sorry to bring up an old thread but what's a set of copies worth? I'd like a copy set to put the car on so I can send my genuine ones off to be restored.

$400 to $500 but all depends on condition of wheels and tyres

There was an Apparent 17x8.5" Genuine Set on eBay that didn't sell for $650 on 21/02/2014
Description on add was:-

4 genuine 17*8 el get wheels. Minor gutter rush on the four wheels however one has slightly bigger rash then the rest as it's pictured. It's not a chunk missing no crack. One rim has red overspray on it. Comes off with prepsol I just have no interest in doin it. Tyres are good zetum all have decent tread left as pictured. Can pick up from doncaster or I can deliver for an agreed fee.
0423 693 758 PLEASE NOTE If you cannot pick item up if you cannot organise your own courier do not place a bid. Contact me first and if I can help I will

Yes I am aware the description stated 17x8 but the title on the add stated 17x8.5

Then there were copies that didn't sell for $600 on 21/02/2014
Description on add was:-
EL GT wheels 17 x 8.0".

Fitted with new 235/45-17 LUTON tyres about 6 months ago but only driven 30km home from tyre shop.
Excellent wet weather tyres.
All four have minor gutter rash.

Then there was this guy trying to sell genuines at $1,000 starting bid $2,000 buy now which didn't sell on 19/02/2014
Set of 4 authentic ford el gt rims some gutter rash but good otherwise
If you wish to discuss further feel free to call me on 0439363828

1 el gt wheel for sale
No tyre
Wheel is a aftermarket copy of el gt wheels. Has the tickford centre cap
