Wot're they worth...

[thepsychoman]

Got a set of five Compomotive six spoke alloys - 7J16, complete with the right wheel nuts and locking wheel nuts, fit early 90 (i.e. they fit on mine, with drum brakes okay). A few minor scrapes and scratches, but otherwise in good nick - spare is brand new - never been on the car, I think. No tyres fitted - bare wheels.

I was thinking around £175 for the set of 5 - does this sound reasonable? Thinking of putting 'em up for sale in the next few days... so would appreciate any thoughts.

Thanks

got any pics? im not sure which rims they are...

[thepsychoman]

No piccies handy - I'll get some tomorrow and post 'em. Basically they have six smooth spokes kinda curving out from the centre.

Think they have about 3.5" offset - I'm changing them for wheels with for more offset, as I've gone up to 265/75/16 Insas, so lost some of my turning circle (and I don't like spacers).

Look anything like these ones?



If so they are Compomotive VS

[thepsychoman]

Thats them exactly! Save's getting my camera out tomorrow - thanks for that! So - any views on price?!?

[Disco-Ron]

Any idea what the offset is on them?? there's a slim chance i could be interested......!!

[thepsychoman]

See above - I think they are 3 or 3.5" from memory. I'm moving up to 4.5" to get my steering back!!!!

[Disco-Ron]

Sorry, should have read it all shouldn't i..... sadly for you, that means they're no good for me, as i have 285 75's waiting to go on my Disco when i cam find some flippin wheels to put em on.....

Good luck.. worth 175 i would say with the nuts etc!

[AbyssDJ]

i thought it might be those ones! i've only ever seen two landys with them one, one of which is yours, snooky!

Guess mine is the other one!!!!

[AbyssDJ]

nope unfortunately you're not lucky enough to have been graced with my observation! :D the other one was a 110 that simonred90 was looking at.... he sent a picture of it to keri. pretty sure that had some chromed ones fitted.

however, i do know of 3 that have them fitted now! :D

[jjsaul]

They're called Compomotive VS i think.

Would you be interested in splitting the locking nuts?
I'm after a set, i can include some replacement standard nuts in the deal.

PM me please.

[thepsychoman]

To be honest its not really worth splitting em - you can get locking nuts from Paddocks cheap enough.... Would appreciate any other comments re price?!?

[Snooky]

Cost depends on condition I guess, Mine are pretty good so would be interested to see what they do make, mine are 15" with General AT's fitted

[spinkster]

wouldn't you know the bottom has fallen out of the market on that particular style of wheel in the last 3 days due to a sudden influx of other alloy wheels from Asia.................I'll do you a favour (and lose money myself, cos i'm nice like that) and offer you 50 quid cash just to get them out your garage lol

[thepsychoman]

LOL - thanks for that Spinkster! Warms the cockles knowing we have such helpful people in the club!

i could only find locking nuts to fit standard LR alloys...and IIRC the compomotive alloys (and my dragon ones) have a smaller diameter shaft.
Don't remember seeing paddocks selling them unless someone would like to point me at the right products....

As for comments on price the set i have are also for sale but from memory they might well be 15"....
