Hi people,

Just starting to collect a few things(don't we all) for mini projects and wondered what sort of price a second hand set of 4 10" contessa's fitted with about 60% tread are worth?

Yes they are in good condition and standard alloy/grey centers and polished rims, complete with bolts and caps...

ta :)

It depends on the offset as well. The ones that fit under the guards without flares are often sold at a premium because the Grp Nb racers use them. The ones that are offset outwards a bit more are usually cheaper.

The ones the racers use are originally from a 998LS, so are called LS offset. The spokes are roughly level with the outer edge of the wheel.

The more common ones have the spokes about 25mm in from the edge, they are called Mini offset.
Were originally made for Minis with flat brake drums and no flares.
If you have S brakes or spacer drums you would need flares to make them legal.
