Of course some investments are not there for making profit, some are just to make you feel better and that's not a bad thing either

heh... not around here. I buy "last year's" rims for nearly scrap value, even with minimal damage (paint nicks, no metal damage) and mount decent tires on them and sell them for only slightly more at times.
The retail market is there for used OEM WHEELS, but not so much for aftermarket ones.
