I'm just in the process of getting them fully refurbed. They have fairly new tyres on.

once they are complete i'm hoping to sell them. How much roughly will get......generous offers

I sold the ones I refurbished myself, with decent tyres on eBay for Â£400 plus Â£35 postage.

If they have been fully refurbed ie powder coated and diamond cut rims with decent tyres I would say Â£450 - Â£500, polished rims are cheap to do, so Â£350 - Â£400. I got Â£350 for mine and the tyres needed replacing.

sorry to sound like a thick S**T but what is mean't by powder coated and diamond cut rims ?

Powder coating is a method of applying paint to something.

Basically its like a powder that adheres to the object by static. You then bake it to cure it which gives it a tough coating. More info here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Powder_coating

I had the centres on my BBS' bead blasted then powder coated.

Diamond cut is the finish that the outer rim has as standard.
