Ok, have someone interested in the Gen IIs that are on my 92......would you sell or keep them?

How much would you ask?

how are they willing to pay?

Given the crazy prices lately, I'd ask $2500+ But I think you know better than anyone that they are not really worth that. Only a year or so ago they were almost giveaway wheels unless they said "Callaway" on the spokes. Now suddenly people seem to be asking multiple thousands of dollars for sets that need serious refinishing.

So if you have a buyer, it might be a good time to sell. Or maybe they'll go the way of spark plug wires, and in another year you could get $10k for 'em...

If you like them and are confident in their condition, I'd keep them. 20 year old magnesium wheels (many of which seem to spend years with the finish stripped or chipped off) seems like a risky proposition in the first place. So if you later decide you want a set again, who knows...
