Well, I dropped the price on the Gen II wheels and new tires in my add. Almost giving them away just to get them out of my way. Got the set for $1500.00 now. Art

That's nuts! I paid $1380 just for the tires 1 month ago. They don't even have 250 miles on them. As it is, I'm almost giving the wheels away.

More than likey, you will have to go to $1000-$1100 to get rid of them. But GLWS.

This is my experience. Nobody (except Gen. I guys) prefer the later OE wheels over what they have, so they're hard to get rid of. Gen. III/IV guys sure aren't going to buy them. Same thing happens with aftermarket wheels too, but there is a bigger market and you can net more since they're an universal upgrade for all makes/models.

Best of luck. I have been trying to sell a set of HRE 541's with decent tires for $2500, not much interest. Take the tires off and sell them separately.

I bought a set of 2009 6 spoke wheels and the tires I had won't fit. ****** is, I just bought the new tires for the stock wheels 3 weeks prior!

JASONTIFF explained it pretty well.......:dunno:

If all else fails, maybe pull the tires off the wheels and sell separately....?

$1380.00 tires.......$800-1000
Wheels.................$$500


GLWS.....

I would go for that. $900 for tires and $500 for wheels.

I would be interested but you don't live to close to me. Shipping would kill me. I don't mind the stock wheels
and I need tires.
