That is about the going price, When you ask a question like that I am surprised you did not get a bunch of offers of 50.00! I thought about it. :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

Seriously Mtjeepr, I would ask 100.00 each if they are in good shape. Ignore us, we know what they are worth. :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

When I got my M151 it came with 3 mag wheels so I was looking for two more. I posted around and eventually found some for $65 apiece.

Then later I saw a set of 5 come up on e-pay for $100 each. They didn't sell and the price kept dropping each time they were listed. I don't know what they finally sold for. You just have to find the right guy who needs them.

A lot depends on the condition, corroded Mags are bad news to restore since they do not sandblast well and can even catch fire under the right conditions in the blaster.. They are VERY labor intensive to restore so if they are rough then they are not going to bring much. Ones inn clean uncorroded and not cracked condition bring at least 100.00.

For my future M-416 trailer to go with my 1961 MUTT, I needed two magnesium wheels. Ended up having to buy a set of five to get my two. So I have three for sale at $100.00 each. Kevin.

Mag wheels on the M416 would be correct as I think they were produced from 1964 I think.... I've seen a few factory pics with early M416s with the mag wheels. If you are trying to go pre-1964 display, you would more than likely find the M151 pulling a M100 trailer.

Like the way M416s look with the mag wheels. Good luck.
