fenton gyros

how much are some of the different sizes worth? much of a demand out there for them anymore?

 

show me a picture - so I can utter a complimentary (or not) comment and opine as to the likely value (or not) of these worthy items. I know Fenton, just never heard of Gyros

I think the place down the street sells um for like 4.99

 

I think the larger sizes are probably worth about the same as other slot mags.

I think the 15 x 3.5 frontrunners get a premium.

I rue the day I let mine get away....

 

I swapped a pair of 4 inch american racing slots for the 3.5" gyros i have up front . Then was looking for some slots for the rear , Ran a wanted ad in the local freebie wheeler dealer and a fella called me with a set of 15x11's in 5 on 4 3/4 . i asked him if they had a name and he said " GUY ROES" lol , hundred dollar bill for them and some slicks.

 

They are 14x6 fronts and 15inch in the rear. Don't know how wise they are yet.

 

I dont know if they were a good deal or not.But I paid 300.00 for a pair of 15x3.5 fronts.Although they were polished.

I would like to get enough to get a used set or torque thrust wheels

 

lmao!!

 

My old 57 Chevrolet Sedan Delivery, former O/SA Junior Stock class drag car, has a pair of the 15" X 3 1/2" on the front. On that auction site we all know and love is a pair for $650.00! Just sayin', not to start anythin'. Butch/56sedandelivery.

 

i picked up a pair of 15x3.5 for 300 just the rims no tires or caps at the fallout from a fellow h.a.m.b,'er they were clean too

 

I've got a pair of 14x7's with center caps that I tried to sell on here awhile back and couldn't seem to get $100.00 for em. They've been hanging on my shop wall every since. Maybe one day I'll find some fronts and have to look for a car to put them on. They are sweet wheels though, good luck selling yours.

 

That's usually just how my luck is. Well I'm going to run them for awhile anyways

 

The only ones that bring any money are the skinnys, the rest are pretty much a dime a dozen.

 

So that's what my old Fentons are "Gyros"!

My '67SS/RS Camaro came back to me with them replacing my old Cragar deep dish chrome reverse that to this day I still like!

My Fentons are 14 x 7"s and 9"s w/3.5" b/s.

I still have them up on the top shelf out in the garage w/ E-60's and L-60's mounted. Good caps and all...

My old L-60's measure a modern 298/53-14 so are no stretch 60's by me and they are BIG Mutha's! I want to say an 11.5" section width............

You talk about giving my car that, "front up-hunkered down back", muscle car look back then!!

I picked up a pair of 15 X 3.5 Gyros with brand new Goodyears on them a few years ago at the Spring Buick club swap in St.Paul for fifty bucks. They look great on my T Bucket.

Pluck

 

The skinnies bring good $$.You guys are not gunna believe this but about 5 years back at a furniture swapmeet that my wife want to look at a vender had a few car parts in the back of their display .I went in for a closer look and noticed they were slot mags.Upon closer in spection they were 15x3 1/2 Fenton Gyros and 15 x 8 ET's (all 4 were the popular GM 5 on a 4.75 pattern) .They still had old 60's Bias roller tires on them and didnt have a scratch on the wheels.He wanted a $100 for the set and i talked him down to $70.00 .I took them home and sold them to a guy i knew that was looking for them for $150.Boy was i dumb .I had no idea at the time that they were worth $500 - $600 for the front runners alone.I wish now i woulda just kept them ...

 

I love Gyros! that sauce is unbelievable!

 

Ok so the 14s aren't worth anything but what about 15x8's?

 

The rear wheels say keystone on the inside. What are these?

 

(homer simpson) "MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM gyros"

 

always heard them called slots,but i guess gyros makes them sound more expensive???

 

I love Tzatziki sauce and quality rims.
