Default C5 corvette rims price

Hey guys,

Need to sell my rims because times are getting hard. Need help pricing them out. They are corvette c5 rims with around 800 miles on them. the rubber is 245/50/16 toyos with 200 miles.

What should I be asking and what is a fair price?

C5 wheels never came with 16's man...

Those are C5 deep dish wheels, looks like 17's all around.

Sorry to hear about the difficult times.

I personally wouldn't pay more than 400 all together. That's just me, I can usually run into pretty good deals. I know how to search and use other forums lol

Yeah unfortunately with the real vette wheels going for 400 or so with tires its hard to sell the aftermarket wheels even tho we know you paid way more wheels and tires if you bought it new. I'm trying to keep myself from buying a set of those in 18s for my s10.

To help compare, the wheels cost $468 brand new for a set of 4...

Actually are the wheels I'm looking at buying for my car next year, only with 275 width tires (looking at Continental ExtremeContact DW or DWS).
