I've got a set of Lotus alloys with the special Lotus tapered sleeve wheel nuts. I paid I think £130 for them about a decade ago. I've found other styles of similar era Lotus alloys going for about £40 each for a bare wheel only but none of this style.
I've got a set of four, no tyres, no curbing or serious corrosion just a bit of lacquer spidering and flaking paint as you'd expect from 50-ish year old alloys in their original finish. Not sure how much value the proper wheel nuts add, I've never seen these alloys with the proper nuts when they are up for sale. Amazingly, they're a direct fit for the Princess.

There's a refurbished set with new looking tyres but no nuts on facebook for 600 quid www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/799347202129350/Although I feel just powdercoating them silver takes away from the look of the wheels, and I think that's a bit rich for them If it was me selling, I'd probably aim for around 350 and expect offers. Tricky to price as they could sit for a while unsold but find the right person needing a set of cool 4x114.3 wheels and they'll go no problem
