How much for turbines?

How much would a good used set of 4 turbine wheels cost? Anybody sold or bought any recently?

I gave 85 bucks for 16.5 X9.75 turbines. One was cracked beyond repair. So I have 3 good one. The cracked one got sold for scrap as no welding shops would fix it.

It's hard to say because shipping those are cheap, so the market can be limited to maybe your area and that can make the value go down. If they are in good shape, I would think you'd get $100 for em at least.

I am actually thinking about selling a set if they are worth something. Otherwise I'll keep them.

I bought a set of 15 x 8.5s for $100 then sold them for $100, and they did not sell fast either. I currently have a 77 Ranger 2wd that has them as well but they appear to be a bit narrower. When the time comes I'll ask $150 and take what I can get.

I paid 200 for a set of 15x10 for a 1/2 ton and they took me about a month to look like new. Someone had painted them about 8 different times.

I've paid as high as $150 for a set of 4 and as low as $40 for a set of 4. I have a guy on another site offering me a set of 16.5x9.75's for $50, plus shipping from Idaho. I've probably bought and sold a dozen or so sets over the last 5 years. Pretty easy rim to handle and clean up. Also keep in mind, price can be altered if they're aluminum or magnesium.
