What's a set of R91 5-spoke Bullets worth?
 
I've picked up a set of 17" R91s in silver. They are the optional wheel for a MCSc and were take offs with about 8 miles on them.

It's the rims/wheels only with center caps, no tires or lugs. Anyone got an idea of what these would go for? I'm not talking what MINI wants for them, something a little closer to reality :wink: .

I haven't seen any on eBay and don't have a feel for a fair price, so what do you think???

I paid $330 + shipping for mine on eBay

I found a completed auction back in Feb for $400 plus $100 shipping, so your $330 was a good buy! Were they the 17's?

You want to get rid of them Smokey? I just posted yesterday I might be interested in a set.

Ok, guys thanks for all the PMs, but I haven't made up my mind yet on these.

My hope is to convince my wife that they will look great on her MINI when it arrives and I would make the ultimate sacrifice and take the web-spokes from her car. :wink:

BTW, it isn't going so well :lol:

My 2 cents
 
I sold the bullets from my MCSC not because I didn't like the wheels because I think they are one of the nicer wheels MINI offers. I wanted to put on some decent all season tires and found a buyer for the wheels and tires as a set. $500 -$600 would be a fair price if they are in pristine condition, IMHO. The bullets are easy to clean and look great. Downside is that they are a bit on the heavy side, but if performance isn't a big issue, I say put them on your wife's car!

From your lips to ...... well you know how it goes.

For a gal that just last year told me that the only things she wanted in her next car were; a CD player and heated seats!

She now is getting pretty savvy about options and improvements in the 05 model year :lol: :lol:

Actually the bullets are one of the lightest weight OEM 17" wheels, if not the lowest. The bullets run 20.6, while the web-spokes run 22.3, the s-lites are 25.1, the R-90's are 24.1 and the R-99 are 21.9.

If we're talking 17" wheels in general, and not OEM, I agree with you 100%.

I have a set of R91's fs any interest?

I got $750 for bullet wheels/SP9000 tires - 700 miles on them at time of sale. Probably could have gotten a bit more, but had new ASA's on the way.
