Black leather, perfect condition...

Thinking of selling mine and buying an FVD 340mm carbon or alcantara wheel

Doesn't the FVD wheel come with an airbag?

How much is the porsche airbag worth?

I may do the exact same thing soon... I love that FVD Carbon wheel!!!

I think your OEM wheels can sell $600 easily. I'm also thinking to do the same move.

THe FVD wheel is a great upgrade, the grip are lot, I mean ALOT thicker than OEM wheel.

What is the difference between the OEM and FVD versions? Never mind. I posted at the same time as above.

Thanks.

Carbon wheel plus airbag is worth approx 900-1000......... I sold an extra carbon wheel for $800 to a buddy w/ airbag... Keep in mind a new airbag is $570

I like that alcantara one because of the cool stitching and the flat shape of the bottom portion, but i would go with whatever matches the rest of your interior

Your wheel is worth more than people have said.

You can net at least $800-900 for it with the air bag.

They cost alot more than that new or thru Carnewal. Do the math
and add the airbag.

I paid around $850 in perfect condition with airbag (no sun cracks,etc.)

MK

TDarby: I would assume your new one DID NOT include an airbag?? Please clarify!
