Default How much are CR rims worth?

I'm looking for the S2000 CR rims for its clean design and color, but I'm not sure how much I should be expecting to pay for a decent set. I found a set on Craigslist for $1500 with bad tires, is this a good deal? I've searched and read that new sets went for $2,000 plus shipping with HTG and the dealer and the likes. I searched on a few OEM parts websites and haven't had any luck so I assume these are no longer in production.

Thanks!

I saw that CL ad for 1500. I tried to contact them and I had no reply. CR rims are pretty pricey. We just have to keep searching for a used set if you want to save some money

Ah I was getting excited imagining those rims on my RYP AP2. oh well. So $1500 is a decent price?

Depending on the condition ( curb rash, scratches) that might be a good price, I've seen pristine sets bring slightly higher with worn tires. And you are correct these wheels are no longer made.

Like anything else you have to look at the comps. Rarity drives prices up -- it's basic supply & demand.

Personally I think they are overpriced for an OEM wheel considering there is no difference other than color compared to the regular AP2v3 but like others have said it's a supply and demand thing that lets people get good money for them.

To my comment above, I think even regular AP2 wheels are generally overpriced, not just CR wheels.

Sometimes you get lucky...

Not CR rims, but AP2V3. I got mine with good tires off Craigslist for $425. When I replaced the tires, I got $85 for the TPMS sensors, bringing the total to $340.

I have seen them for $800-$1200 without tires. I was in the market for them about a year ago, but I felt they werent worth more then $800-900 without tires.

I picked up a used set of SSR Comp 18" wheels, which are lighter by about 14 lbs total. And I got them for a better deal.

i sold my Ap2 V3 off my 08 for 700, i wouldn't imagine they're worth more than 1000 for the wheels alone, but CR owners tend to think their items are on a unicorn car

What is the wheel weight for the AP2v3/CR wheels? Are these more desirable than the AP2v1 and AP2v2 wheels? What are the differences in the AP2v1 and AP2v2 wheels?
