    Even though I have a set of these same wheels (in better condition and not for sale) I hope no one pays $4000 for this set of 4.5" fuchs. Although the internet has been great for helping guys find parts, it's also had a lot to do with driving prices up. That's because if there is one buyer in the world who will pay a ridiculous price for "something"...that price becomes the new "value" of that "something". I'd like to see sellers get a fair price for their stuff; heck a good price for their stuff...but I'm tired of seeing things posted with over the moon prices. It ruins it for all us hobbists...just my thoughts...

    A big +1 on that from me, Richard!

    The only problem is that I don't think there is any way to get the genie back in the bottle....

    It is a mixed blessing

    If the parts weren't what they are, people wouldn't be willing to spend the money to restore them.

    Would you spend $1500 to restore a set of 4.5 x 15's if they were only worth $1200 when they were done?
