I have an M1 wheel that's available, and before I flog it on eBay, I thought I'd offer it up to the forum. See the photos below--the wheel is in the same condition as it came off the car a few weeks ago when I swapped it for a Petri. I haven't cleaned or polished it up yet.
I'd likely put it up on eBay with a $400 reserve, plus shipping, but if someone here as a good use for it at a slightly lower price, I'm open to offers. PM me...
Looking objectively at the wheel, I don't see any major flaws, or too many minor ones, either. And I'm picky. There's some scuffing to the leather in the 7-8 o'clock position, but they're not deep, and would likely disappear with some polish. The rest of the leather is blemish-free, although shiny (not sure if that's the original state, or if it's been "patina"ed by hands over the years).
The center motorsport logo is yellower than the new OEM wheels I've seen, but I haven't attempted to clean it, either. I suspect it's yellowed with age. No cracks or chips in the plastic cone around the hub.
