Default To Refurbish or Not

In the run up to handing the F-type back, I paid note of the expected condition of the tyres/wheels. I had managed to put some stone chips and one scratch in the paint, with some signs of flaking around the valves. Plus, all 4 Pirellis were toast.

So, I refitted the delivery mileage 18s, and the dealership was very happy.

Now I'm left with a dilemma: do I get the other set refurbed and fit MPS4 before selling, or just advertise as is?

My suggestion is to sell your rims as-is, this will offer most flexibility to the buyer.

Lower outlay on my part too.

Maybe just some Smart Repair of the scratches and chips...

I'd sell as is too.
Each wheel will cost about £85 to refurbish to as new. Just a case of who pays.
