EOI: 13x6" Superlites

Just wondering what 13x6 superlites in charcoal colour are worth exactly? Got 6 of them here, was gonna use them but cant at the moment. They all have tires but they appear to be racing slicks so they basically need new tires.
Fit the sprinter but I have no idea what the offset could be. (any easy way of finding out?)

Yeh Performance superlites, they are all in perfect condition bar 1 which has about a 1cm kurb scratch.
They look kind of like the black ones on http://www.performancewheels.com.au/super_lite_whe els.htm They are a lot darker though in person. Looking at that page though I seem to lack the centre 'cap'.

Yeh I put them up against my 15x6 Speedy Hyperfangs which have 195/50s and they are almost identical size. If you have some big tires they come out about the same size. They have racing slicks on at the moment so they look massive.
Any way working out the offset?

Bugger
Any who I sent an email to performance and about it and Ill see what they say.
Looking all over the wheel there are a lot of numbers printed on it and the only one which stood out was 32JJ. That doesnt mean much does it?

easy way to measure offset...
hmmm
measure distance from the flat part where hub face goes... measure from there to the outside of the rim in both directions
then subtract one from other...

Wheel offset
The wheel's offset is the distance from its hub mounting surface to the centerline of the wheel. To determine wheel offset:
Position the wheel on a flat surface and measure its overall width.
Subtract the backspace and divide by two.
The offset of a wheel can be one of the following three settings:
Zero offset:
The hub mounting surface is even with the centerline of the wheel.
Positive offset:
The hub mounting surface is toward the front or wheel side of the wheel. Positive offset wheels are generally found on front-wheel drive cars.
Negative offset:
The hub mounting surface is toward the back or brake side of the wheel's centerline. "Deep dish" wheels are typically negative offset.

my rims have 90mm on brake side, and 60mm on curb side, so are +15 offset?
pretty sure that performance make multiple offsets..

Well if its right then these wheels appear to be +30 offset. They are 110mm on the brake side and 50mm on the wheel side. That leaves 60/2 which is +30?
They also appear to have the "Racing purpose steel tapered inserts".

2 of them still have a good 3mm deep dimples left (in the centre, deeper on the outside), 2 others have about 2mm in the centre and other two getting close to bald in the middle (still have dimples but they are very shallow). Cant get pics of the tread for another week because the camera's gone on holidays.

Umm nope $120 for all six Im guessing, dont really know what I would do with the last two if I sold them as a set of 4. As for how much, not sure at this moment because anything towards getting my sprinter interior retrimmed would be cool (would definately consider trade for the stock jdm sprinter seats with rails (a pair of my rails are bent T-18 rails  ))
Might try the trading post or something, as there would be more people in SA looking in that. The only problem with interstate is it might be a little pricey for shipping? (any idea how much it might be?)
