Do the original Wagon Wheels have value?

I have a set of Wagon wheels from a 99'. Do they have any value? Can they be sold?

Typical price for a set of 4 is about $200 or so. Pristine set might bring $250. Some guys like em for track use. And if you add some decals to the wagon wheels, they actually look pretty cool!

I agree - they do make good track wheels. If they are chromed they look pretty good.

Yes, they definitely have value. Some people like them. They get a bad rap for the looks but they are great wheels. Light and strong. As the others have stated, good track wheels.

I also see them alot on tuner cars such as modded VW Golfs and such.

might want to tap into that market if you are looking to sell. They actually look pretty good on the VWs.

I bought a set for $80 because it never came with the stock wheels when I bought it just in case I ever decide to sell it. That most likely isn't going to happen so I'm going to turn them into a couple end tables for the Vette room man cave type place.
