Default FS Brand New Torque Thrust II Rims and Tires

I just bought this 02 WS6 and it came with brand new 17" Torque Thrust II rims and New 315/35/17 Nitto Drags in the rear and 255/35/17 Nitto 555 up front. I priced them and rims and tires go for about 2100.00, I'm looking to get $1,700.00 for them already mounted and balanced..These are for the F-Bodies....SOLD FOR $1,600.00

there's a wheel & tire section as well as a for sale section.

you will never get more that $1000 for that set... even then it will be a push.

if you do decide to sell consider including the following:

wheel width
wheel offset
tire size

I'm curious...what wheel package are you gonna go with next, Chuck?

Doesn't look like you're hurting for cash.

If they've been on the car, they're not BRAND new And if they were on that '02 in your sig, I can't imagine the tires would even be able be considered like-new lol

There are less then 100 miles on the wheels and tires, and as for wearing them out, the TA is my work car, the tires have 10/32 of tread left, my Vette is my play toy...

I just ordered 600 bucks in new tires... drag radials in the back etc... That would make the wheels only worth about 400bucks for the set?
I'd take that all for a grand, if I hadn't just blown all that money on new tires.

That would make the rims worth about 400.00 to YOU. But, that's not how much you'll EVER pay for them, especially NEW. So go find yourself some used beat up Torque Thrust II for 400.00. Because your not gonna get them here...

Yah that's exactly what I was getting at bro, that's like 100 bucks a wheel...
Seems a little on the cheap side, personally.

Just FYI... a set of TTII's polished from tomzwheels BRAND new is 799, add vredstein 275s and 315's you are at 1418 total for actually brand new stuff. Not starting a **** war but just an FYI.

Not to trying to bash at all but clearly this thread has and this isnt even the forsale section. So after reading I have this to say, take it as you will- its only MY OPINION:

First off you said they are new- then later you said they have 100 miles on them, so that outrules that part of them being new. Secondly, the correct size of tires for our front is the 275/17/40 size the poster had written and you said wrong size- maybe thats not the size you have but that IS the correct size. And lastly, The average rate for TTII's with "like new tires" greatly varies, but at most I can't seeing you getting more than $1,200 here on this site..... BUT there is always EBAY where you can make up more profit in shipping like everyone else!

Now with that being said- GOOD LUCK with the sale!!! Eitherway, sounds like someone will be getting some nice rims/tires.

But now we're curious for what price they sold for, and be honest
