I got £200 for a set of 16" black wheels, Antia style, 3 were scuffed up from potholes and curbs. These being silver, and only 15", i can't imagine they'd be worth a whole great deal i'm afraid. 100-150? If they were in good condition then closer to 200. Almost worth keeping them with a set of winter tyres on.

People find alloy rims by using the OEM part number, so make sure you always use that in the title when advertising them.

The OEM part number of your alloy rims is 6V0601025A which is also marked on the back of your alloy rims.

 

Take a look on ebay at others who are advertising them. As you will see, most are selling them one at a time and without tyres. You might want to consider removing the tyres and selling the tyres separately. As you can see on ebay, there's a big secondhand market for OEM alloy rims, especially for popular cars like the Fabia.

 

myhermes are cheap to post items like single alloy rims and single tyres.

185/60R15 tyres don't protect 6J alloy rims very well from kerbing damage, as the tyre sidewalls don't bulge out much. You might be better of fitting 195/55R15, 195/60R15, or even 205/55R15 tyres onto 6J rims for this very reason, with the 205/55R15 providing the best protection out of those three tyre sizes. This enables you to often get away with gentle nudges against the kerb when parallel parking. There's not a huge choice in the 205/55R15 size, although Uniroyal have their latest RainSport 5 in that size.

The tyres are worth far more than the wheels. I suggest taking them off and sell them separately. Make sure to include tyre depth for each tyre in the ad. 

Try selling the rims in a separate ad, but frankly they're worth little.
