Not mine. How'd that price? I have no point of reference on used Alcoas.

You can get brand new Alcoa wheels for $269.95 each (plus shipping) from JimK.

That is 1079.80 for four. The tires are 6 years old even if "brand new never been used stored for about 6 years in climate controlled area."

IF I came across this deal, at a much lower price, I would sell the tires on craigslist, and get 3 more wheels from JimK. Then When ready to use them buy BRAND NEW "just out of the mold" rubber.

As to a price point, I would not pay more than $800... if I needed wheels. AND I really do not, so a "buy even if I didn't need it" price would be about half that. Rolling Eyes

That was what I was thinking, too. But everybody seems so rabid about Alcoas in the wild, I'd wondered if the resale price had gone up.

(I have 7 Alcoas in inventory. NFS, though.)

The tires are old, and the price is not that much better than New Eagles from JimK. I am in striking range, and if someone is really interested, I could go look at them and report.
