Am I getting a good deal?..
Im going to pick up a set of 14 inch diamond cut castellets sometime this week. They've recentley been profesioanlly refurbed and come with virtually brand new falcon tyres 195... I'm getting them for £400 is that a good price?

I didn't realise castelletes went for so much.. Last set I seen were in good nick, and went for under £200. They had okish tyres on too.
To be honest, I know this is my own opinion, but there's better wheels out there for £400.

Couldnt agree more Emma, £400 seems steep to me for 14" wheels, falken tyres are very cheap too.emma_88 wrote:I didn't realise castelletes went for so much.. Last set I seen were in good nick, and went for under £200. They had okish tyres on too.

Check out the for sale section on here, some dude is selling freshly refurbed 16" BBS RXII's for £399.00 delivered - Now that's a bargain!

They are nice, but i dont think they are worth £400. if you like that style, I would personally hold out for a set of Porsche D90s im sure for roughly £4-500 you can get a nice set with adapters. But thats my personal choice.
Nice wheels but not worth the price tag!

The wheels do look very nice but they are not worth £400, keep your money mate and wait for a better deal to come along.
In my opinion your better off going for 15 or 16" wheels really on a 6N2, unless you intend to lower it to the ground.
Ben,
