If you need snow tires don't sell them.

Well at the junkyard here, they want $50 per wheel if they are chrome, $40 per wheel if they are steelies....."thats how they refered to them lol"

So, 200 should be a decently fair price, 250-300 if they are perfect, but not any more then that as I've seen used Z06 wheels sell for about 400 for a set and on one of the sponsors I think you can get OEM ZO6 rims for like 500.... but

+1 if you need snow tires don't sell them...

I run A/S tires on My Camaro year round since it doesn't see the track....although I keep trying to convince my wife to let me take it there..lol

250 for chrome snowflakes with bad tires? Thats not a good deal, Either way, he's your friend that just got his wheels stolen. I can't tell you how many times my buddies have gotten me out of a bind without asking for money, and I'll return the favor if they're ever in need. I'd say 100-150max.

well he said he just found a pair of non chrome snowflakes for 100 bucks and he said he is just gonna buy them so should i try and sell my snowflakes or keep them for NEXT winter and put some really good snow tires on them? and if i keep them should i leave them chrome or powder coat them gloss black or gloss black and leave the chrome lip?

Yeah, the snowflakes have virtually no market value. I have them on my car and hate them... Just don't have the money for the CCW yet.

Do what you want to do with them man. Keep them for next winter or sell them, we don't know your situation. Do you need the money that bad? Do you think you'll regret selling them?

The chrome is going to need to be taken off if you plan on powdercoating them. So I doubt you're going to be able to get a chrome lip, a polished/machined lip is probably the route go if you really want to do it. But I think its a waste of money.

Well you'd need to get the chrome off (which isn't easy). I'd say $50-75 per wheel if you get the chrome off yourself.
