i'm not getting the threads by e-mail, sorry for the delay. If they're really like "new", around $60.00 to $80.00 per wheel, if they're rashed, around $25.00 to $40.00. If they don't have the Hubcaps, less. Less still if Hubcaps don't have the Center Emblems. Don't bother with eBay, I've seen lots of Teardrops there, they go unsold, people ask too much, then the shipping cost kills the deal. eBay always gets their fees even if you don't sell the item(s).

I have that style in my 1984 XJ-6, that's all I know. Whether they're metric or inch, they still measure 15" X 5.5". (or maybe 6", I never measured them). Most people prefer the "Pepperpot" for the XJ-6 or the "Starfish" for the XJ-S, but not me, I like the "Teardrops". Those came standard from 1988 thru 1990 (or thereabouts) in the XJ-40. Some people had them chromed but they look tacky in my opinion.
