15x8 Wheels - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

highrpm · 12-10-2006, 06:28 PM

At the local pick a part I counted no less than 10 sets of 5 lug 15x8 ralley wheels. Are these not worth much anymore? Or should i grab a few sets they are only $6 each or $12 If there is a tire on them they think is useable.

The factory rally wheels are nice, but they made enough of them that they aren't high-dollar items as far as I know. I wouldn't have minded having a set of factory rally wheels, I like them a lot.

I looked for what seemed forever for a set. After finding one here on there finally got a full set. Now I need centers and rings. If you can get them that cheap, clean them up and put them Evilbay with the build date, some resto guys will go for them.

My favorite!

A guy up the road from me is asking $340 for a set with decent tires. Do those wheels have rings and centers, or is that price for wheels only? I've seen people pay between $150-250 for a set at swap meets. At least pick me up 5 of them and I'll pay price+shipping if you're not too far away

I'm trying to find one cheap enough for a spare. That's a great deal there.

$25 each without rings or centers in my area .

Slonaker · 12-12-2006, 10:37 AM

I don't know what they actually sell for here, but they are still pretty common at the swap meets. Nobody wants them, it seems.

I passed up a set of four with new generic radials 255/70/15 plus caps and trim rings for $175 at a swap meet last year. The guy still had them at the end of the day. I wanted to make him an offer, but I had just bought new tires, and couldn't see myself needing them for several years.

I think you should grab them up myself. I bought two a couple years ago from Wheel Vintiques at $92.00 a piece without caps and rings.

Corner the market while you can...

I sold two sets last year for $200-250 with caps and rings. I listed them locally, they sold quick. I have another set now off my my 86' with caps, rings and tires but have not listed them yet.

5 or 6 bolt rallies??? have a set of both center caps and rings too

highrpm · 12-14-2006, 12:13 PM

All 5 lug I havent seen any six lug ones there are a couple of sets of the 15x7 alumium six lug ones though.
I might grab a couple of sets next trip to keep just in case.
None have centers or trim rings what is the going price for those.
