Getting new wheels_How much to ask for my old ones?

Looking for advice on a ballpark figure to ask for my 07 MCS stock wheels with less than 5k on them. They're obviously in perfect condition since they have barely touched the road. Any advice boys and girls? Thanks.

I think you need to list a little more info, like which wheels and tires. I just sold my runflat Goodyear tires only that came on mine for $100 each which was slightly less than half of the tire rack price. I kept the wheels and mounted new winter tires on them.

It's usually better to sell locally when possible.

Check ebay.com for similar sales.

Check the marketplace forum for tires and wheels for previous sales.

07 MCS stock wheels come in 16" and in 17", post a picture.

Condition will vary even with 5000 miles due to curb rash and upkeep- how dirty they have gotten without regular cleaning.

Colors vary - white or silver.

Some 16" wheels are lighter in weight and are in more demand.

Somewhere from about $250 to $300 on up to $400+ for a set plus shipping. Depends on how much you are willing to sell for and how much someone is willing to buy.

Aftermarket wheels are easy to find-
$100-150 per wheel (and lighter than stock)
Tires about $70 to $130 each that are superior to most runflats for performance and comfort.

Price will vary with your exact wheels and tires.
If they are light weight or more rare color you can ask for more.

More for brand new take offs with few miles.
