Default how much to pay for AP2V2s?

So, as the thread title says, how much should I expect to pay for AP2V2s (7.5/10 condition)?

I didn't see any threads posted on this and hard to judge from the for sale threads ...

With some okay tires on them and decent condition, I usually see them anywhere between $600-800 without considering shipping.

Honda Wheels

Reconditioned. No experience with the seller, just what Google showed.

Mint AP2V2s can run for about $500-550, mint AP2v1s roughly $400-450, AP2v3s range from 550-650 as the AP2v3 CRs range from 650 on up....I wonder how damaged the rims were in the seller link you posted. Were they cracked? Curb rash? What was the previous damage of the rim I am about to purchase...for piece of mind

The link I posted is to commercially reconditioned/refurbished wheels. Contact the vendor for details.

I put a set from another vendor (couldn't find the link) on my '06 last July and only close inspection shows where they were machined to remove blemishes. I ain't paying $400 - $600 for one (1) wheel. These are reburbished OEM 2006 wheels. Not sure what "V" that makes them. I bought a set of 4 to get rid of the horrible black aftermarket wheels the former owner inflicted on the car.



Dirty (I'm a driver, not a detailer!) but no scars, etc,



Truly mint wheels ain't mint past the first refuel anyway.

Chuck, understand the prices I listed were for a set of 4 also on the inside of your spokes does it have MADE IN CHINA?....I remember awhile back other members posting about the venter you listed, but the topic blew away with the wind. As long as they are OEM wheels without structural damage and not replicas they should be fine

Pretty sure the S2000 OEM wheels were made by Enkei in Japan. Mine are, anyway. Marked Honda Motor etc on the inside spokes. Hard to see around the brakes even on the lift. The things I do for you guys!

I don't know the vendor I linked as an example. I purchased from a different vendor who conducted it's own quality control prior to shipping (I had one wheel delayed for a few weeks) and my "wheel guy" did the same. He typically has 911s, Jaguars, etc. in the shop. This guy is pretty anal about wheels and tires and he pronounced the wheels as excellent. Ran them for trueness and balance before he even started mounting the tires. He spent time positioning the center caps so the H aligned with the valve stems. "WHAT?!' was my response. Told me I'd be embarrassed at the local drive in if the caps were crooked.

There were refurbished OEM CR wheels advertised from my vendor but at much higher prices.
