Default FS: 4 16" Twisties w/ 60% tire life remaining

I have four rims (Twisties off a T/A) that have been sitting around for a while, so I'd like to move them. Don't know what they're worth, if much, but they do all have tires with about 60% tread-life remaining (conservative estimate). Just post here or shoot me a PM if anyone wants them.

$200

Are these overpriced? The $200 tag is "or best offer."

Seems reasonably priced if the tires really are ~60% remaining just that there might not be a big market for them right now

Yeah, I bet it's just that noone has interest in them. They are stock wheels (everyone here has stock wheels), but I posted them up just hoping someone would need them. We'll see!

The last set of 5 spokes I bought was $75 and they had decent tires.

I just bought a set of salad shooters (which are about a pound lighter than 5 spokes) for $50 with reasonable tires.

That's nuts. I can get more than that selling the tires to a used tire place a couple miles away. Gone that route before, but I'd like to unload the wheels as well.

Not denying that. 16x8s are everywhere ...

And just to make sure you understand why I posted, you asked if the price was too high. I just passed along my experience.

Oh yeah, no doubt. I wasn't directing anything negative towards you at all.
