goodenough 5 Gemini wheels and 4 centre caps in bridgstone tyres with good tread. 2 of the centre caps are made with a cnc machine and are very good aftermarket quality. $1200 ono
goodenough Vee_Que;133339 wroteSwap those rims with your white cars ones. They are less then a year old. The white car has really good Gemini’s on it already
jamesinc vo940;133341 wroteWhat are Gemini’s worth I really don’t know? It's an unpredictable market. I've turned down $1500 for my set of five with four caps, but on the other hand I paid $500 for them, so... It's an unpredictable market.

All depends on the person I guess and who’s got $1200 to throw at a set of wheels. If they don’t sell in a week or so I’ll just resto them including paint the hand made centre caps and get Volvo decals.
240 Do they have the proper Volvo tool for removing the centre caps? (If so I would happily buy it from you!) If you're selling them with near new RE003 tyres I think your price is probably fair. With crappy or no tyres, I'd say between $500 and $850 depending on condition.

Yeah mate comes with a tool but not a Volvo tool and thanks for the feed back much appreciated ?
jamesinc vo940;133411 wroteWhat’s a tool alone worth? They rarer than the centre caps? Haha I dunno, I've never actually seen one for sale :tongue:

jamesinc That's amazing, that's actually quite nicely made. I just use my hands to put the caps on and off. The re so big you can torque them well with your bare hands.

Yeah old mate made this. He was quite handy. I still can’t believe he made two of the centre caps himself. He makes aeroplane parts for a job
240 I'd be nervous that they'd fly off if I just used my bare hands... I looked into using BBS tools (most seem to be for BMW E30's) but they're all either 80 or 90mm, Geminis are 86mm... thanks Volvo.
jamesinc The centre caps wouldn't be too hard to make with a lathe and mill, especially if you're good at making HSS forming tools to really dial in the curves.
