Default Looking to sell two sets of TA wheels. Questions!

I'm considering selling both my sets of wheels and buying ZR1 replicas (17x8 & 17x11) I have a standard set that are plasti dipped black (removable) with 245 Dorals and 225 Continentals. One of the Continentals got curb bulge and slight wheel bend on the lip (got cut off by a Kia) other three are fine. I also have a set of chrome ws6 wheels with 255 BFGoodrich TA Comp all around. Two questions, what could I get from either set, and it is worth the investment going out and buying a matching wheel and tire to complete the black standard set? The Continental('s) have full tread, Dorals have about 500 miles left, and the 255 BFG's have roughly 50-60% tread. I can find a reconditioned wheel for $120 and a new Continental for $111 but is it worth it or just part the wheels out?

(FYI for anyone wondering in the pics why I have the 225's out back, I mounted them the day of the pic at the school garage and had to slap the wheels on back and rotated them later)

My eyes might be deceiving me, but looking at the pictures of the chrome wheels (WS6?), those look like 16 inch Firebird/TA wheels. Another giveaway is the center caps say "ABS" instead of "WS6". I don't know what you'd get for those, maybe check ebay to see what they're selling for, but definitely don't try and misrepresent those as WS6 wheels.

I just sold a set of 4 for $100 with life on the tires. Not worth investing for a matching set if you won't make that $$ back.

Wheels didn't come with center caps when I bought them, so I took the caps off my old ones and slapped them on. From what I was told, they were ws6 wheels. Any dead giveaways?

The ws6 wheels were 17 inch only.If they are true ws6 wheels they sell for around 150 and up each.
