Modex (Tsuchiya-designed) wheels value?

[Two-Fortee]

ok , so I bought a 180sx up here in Canada with these wheels on them, I did some research and they are MODEX wheels designed by the famous real "drift king" Keiichi Tsuchiya. This is the same man who started the famous aftermarket suspension brand KEI Office . They came on my car and to be honest I just want to go with a different look right now. Wheels are in amazing shape with no major problems. They are 4 bolt, 16x8 and 16x7.

Tires are 205/55/16 up front with Pilots

235/50/16 in the rear, not sure on brand, but I could check.

Tires have great tread all around.

I know a person on a forum that spend $400 per wheel on these, and then almost $400 each to ship them from Japan. To my knowledge these cars were only sold in Japan, so these are authentic JDM wheels.

Im on a site called son240sx.org and these guys love drifting and all things JDM, so how much should I ask?! I was thinking around $2 000. Would this sound fair? What do you guys think?



Not my exact wheels but basically the same:

I'm not 100% sure but I just did a quick google search and I didn't see a single set of those for sale for over 800$. But what do I know?...

[redtop91]

I don't any near stock offset/width/size would retail for over a grand. I wouldn't pay that for them personally.

Lol, dude people from SON visit this site too.. I'm one of them

I doubt you will get $2000 for them, maybe $500 if you play your cards right. They don't have off the wall ridiculous sizing or any crazy offsets that would warrant such a high price.

[zenkii]

^ thats real talk, that is just maybe with good tire condition

[Two-Fortee]

haha yea I dont care, I'm just asking for some advice. I have no idea what there worth

They are worth $200 with tires...Cause thats all i have to spend...Nice wheels man

[KA24Power]

You know how SON is, lowballer city. Start them off higher than you expect, then lower the price and people will think they're getting a deal!

Jks, I'd reccomend starting them around $5-600 and checking the interest, if no one bites lower your price.

[Drift Motion]

$2000?**** NO!

[Soravia]

take off a tire and put it on the scale.If the thing weights more than 14lb for 16x7, it ain't worth $200 a piece.

[lofapoo]

You might be able to score 400-500 for them, and I highly doubt anywhere near a grand, and definitely no where close to two.

...for those? Dude you must be crrraazy! Hahaha

[MagikDragon]

My set of KS05r's were $800 shipped and they were in PERFECT condition! Unfortunatly there is no way you can score over that for just wheels, with tires, maybe $1000 with tires.

[S13Teddy]

These are $2000 wheels:



These are not:

[keith0486]

**** i had a pair of old toyo wheels and all i got was 400 so there is no way ur getting over 800 for those. first they are 16's not to many people now a days are looking for 16's sorry to tell you dude but if you askk 2,000 for them you'll get laughed at right to your face.

[mrgreeneyes]

keith, your posts hurt my head to read man...

think, then type homie...

and FYI, there are plenty of people who want 16's... just as there are those who want all the other sizes...

OP, 2g's would be real nice, but i think you know your answer already. i think they are sexy wheels and someone out there will def snatch them up. GLWS

[thekawaii]

Used Kei office wheels goes for $400 without tires. (In Socal)

Mine was 16*8 all around though. +35 offset I think?

Rbmotoring used to sell lots of those

[Mauibuilt Guy]

I doubt you will get $2000 for those wheels. A reasonable offer would probably be $600 plus shipping. Good Luck on the possible sale.

[Two-Fortee]

The thing ia though I really don't want to sell them, I want to trade them, thats why if I sell them I want to get a good buck for them.

Come on guys they are JDM tyte wheels yo ! hahaa

[sommmatt]

That's definitely the mentality of someone who visits SON... **** that place.

[D3stro]

A saw theses in 17'' sold for 400$ on another Nissan board..

[s13leprechaun]

defin not 2 gs.. work s1's hardly go for that. gl

[CMG]

Down here in SOCal, you would get $600 max for 'em, things may be different in Canada. I would never pay over $2000 for rims but if I did they would be HRE or Kinesis.

[addisonblck]

op : id say ask for 700. then work ur way down. i wouldnt go lower than 400 though.

my reasons: theres always an idiot would thinks its a good deal. plus i just like 16's.

[White Comet]

and FYI, there are plenty of people who want 16's... just as there are those who want all the other sizes...

+1 i want 16s and i dont like wheels much bigger than that. 17s are pushing it imo. i couldnt stand any bigger than that. im not what u call baller. good luck selling though

[thekawaii]

only good thing about that wheels is, it clears Z brake calipers

[Stay Sidewayz]

...for those? Dude you must be crrraazy! Hahaha

You might be able to score 400-500 for them, and I highly doubt anywhere near a grand, and definitely no where close to two.

[adrianfromthecastle]

IIRC, I saw RBmotoring with them for like $600.

LOL..

for $2k, I could probably get some decently used Eurolines from Upgarage
