As the title suggests, other than usual gumtree or ebay etc. Surely there must be a site just for straight swaps or a company that buy them and remarket them :?

With so many brands and styles out there how do you sell second hand wheels and get the fairest price possible considering the new price paid, what's your thoughts?

Ok thanks mate, I suppose wheels are far too specific to be an easy thing to swap.

And I don't use Facebook either haha

I think that I'm just going to buy some edition 35 wheels and run them as winter wheels. I do still really like mine but the poke just puts sh!t all up the sides in wet muddy weather.

Doesn't help that there are 3 new build sites down the road from me :(

Hi RKDdesigns I'm well aware of what wheels I can fit, offsets etc. I was asking if there are any good wheel trading sites.

Which there appears to be none really, but that's fine and I'll just buy some 18's for a winter setup with some grippy tyres.

Thanks!

To trade wheels fb groups are a lot of. But companies arent fond of trading in used wheels. So Thats why there arent many to Find.

Personally I look most into these sites :

www.bandenleader.be
www.reifentrends.de
www.autobanden-365.nl
www.camskill.co.uk

But since most of you guys are UK based, I would say only Camskill is of any use to you ...

However, it is often very intresting t look into second hand sites ..... Lots of people swap wheels right after purchasing a new car to get some flashy rims under there. You often find new wheels and rims at bargain prices (ebay etc)
