Can fix that with a small spacer though yeah?

Yep!

Hey guys, got some new wheels arriving shortly so will be selling my genuine twisty's.

Been searching online to see what a second hand set go for but can't see many around ATM. what is a fair price to advertise them for?

If they're in A1 condition with decent tread I'd be asking about $1500 neg. With sh*t tyres probably $1200 neg and then if they're in pretty poor condition with sh*t tyres $1000 neg. That's just going off what I've seen them for in the past plus considering what other falcon/fpv wheels go for

They don't command what dark argents do, I say about $2k

dark argents are sh*t to sell been trying for ages

Genuine's are because the copies bring the price of them down! When you can get a new set of copies for less than $2k with new tyres and you can get copies for like $1k it kind of sucks for those with genuines. If I had an FPV and upgraded rims I would keep the originals and sell the car as original later on.

Kind of off topic a bit but whats everyones view on needing hub spacers. I measured up my new wheels n they're 73mm and I believe the FG is 70.5mm. Is it necessary to get a hub spacer? I never noticed on my current rims if they're a bigger bore size or not but I'd say they are and never had an issue to date (touch wood)

Hub spacer? Or ring?

A ring is worthwhile cause it makes the wheel fit tightly on the hub... So it's not the studs that are holding the wheels on... It's the hub as well...

I would definitely run hub rings in alloy (buy off eBay for $25) cause they also stop wheels feeling like they are out of balance...

99% required.

There's always the 1%.
