Default Asking price for Draglites ?

I have a set of Cragar Lites that are on a '95 Camaro, but are not the right offset for a 4th gen (3.5" backspace). One of the runners has some curb rash and one of the rears has a slight bend in the lip (looks like it hit a curb). What is a good asking price for these ? The car is a V6 and will never see a track and I would rather have a closer to stock wheel setup.

Any suggestions ?

i think a picture of how the car looks with them would be better, so people could see the offset

but yeah for $350 you should sell them pretty quick

The front offset is fine, if I remember correctly, they only have 1 offset. The rear offset is too much in my opinion. This is the only pic I have for now.

Would be willing to sell the fronts separately.

I noticed the cragar center caps. If those arent welds they wont be as light. The cragars are an older replica.

Thanks for pointing that out. Do you know if there is a specific name for them ? Or are they called Cragar Draglites ? I wouldn't want to mislead anyone, it's just not a look I care for on this car.

I measured the rear rim today, it's a 15x8 with a 3.5" backspace.

Well you can get the Jegs ( basically weld wheels ) wheels for 90 each on the front so about 40-50 each on the front no tires, then add about 80-100 for front tires if in great condition if not go down from there, the rear wheels are 120 new so about 60 each used on the rear wheels, then plus whatever tires.

So yeah around 350ish sounds fair. If you want them to move fast thats about the right price

I say the fronts are worth like 175. I paid 650 but they were with new rear slicks on Mickey Thompson aluminum wheels, and some regular ol prostars with new tires on the front
