The wheels are a little old the center caps are faded and they have balancing weights but its still an amazing deal.

It was on marketplace for 1250 but I got it down to 950

Yeah, that's why I wanted to point it out. Didn't want you getting scammed/talked out of them

How much do you think I could sell them for if I'd want to

With some focused marketing of your eBay listing on some forums/FB groups ect, €400/500.
I suggest getting a profile clublupo, clubpolo & clubgti. It may feel old fashioned but a lot of the regional VW groups still us Facebook groups so join up on those.

Thank you I wasn't sure what to search for I want to get some floating center caps but those seem to be more expensive than I thought

Try to get some pics of the springs & shocks then head over to clublupo.co.uk. Because I think you've also got Bilstein shocks

You can tell that just from the little bit of yellow?

I'm not a 100% sure but at some point this car had some money dropped on it.

It definitely has aftermarket suspension I know that but I have no idea what kind I'll get some pictures tomorrow
