Default How much for my wheels?

I just got some new C5 Z06 rims for my trans am, and i was wondering if i would get more out of trading my stockies in to a tired dealership or selling them on here. How much do you guys think i could get for stock 16" trans am rims wrapped in michelin pilots with about 90% tread left? The dealership is only giving me 300 bucks and i would like to make some more so i can buy some tires for my new rims.

If you got almost new pilot sports i would just take the tires off and sell the wheels and tires seperate . You should be able to get $300 for just the tires and I have seen 16 chrome abs wheels sale for over $500 .
Dont let them dude rip you off . they sure as hell know how much those things are worth . Also tire rack has good prices on tires all day and they are a sponsor .

Not sure how much you can sell the chromies for... if you don't mind sitting on them for a month constantly whoring 'em out you might just get some decent cash out of 'em ($500)

For comparison I generally see WS6 rims go for $400.00. I usually see 16 inch chrome go for $250-$350.00. With tires I would say $500-$600. I would just list a price and see what happens.

Well I have the money lol I just can't be spending it, and there's nothing wrong with my current rims to require me to purchase any :\ Which is why I'm thinking of just painting my salad shooters black >_>

If you're willing to send a christmas present to me though LOL
