Default What To Do With Old Wheels?

Any recommendations on what to do with my old wheels after installing new wheels and tires?

I left the original TPMS sensors in them. Tires sill mounted on wheels.

Break them down and sell independently?


Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

i see them posted on Let Go, and Craigslist all the time. It's easier to sell them locally so you don't have to ship them.

sell them to a reseller. Theres a place in my town that sells factory wheels at WAY less than the dealership, and they pay top dollar for take-offs, even more with tires. Check with Discount/American tire, they can direct you.

I would sell them as a set as suggested earlier Craigslist and offerup seem to work well. I believe since they fit 04 and up some of the older models could use them to refresh their stock look at a decent price. Most sets here seem to sell for around 500.

I would post them on Craigslist...I saw a set recently like yours asking $800 or BO....
I would search CL and see what others are asking for a reference price

E-bay local pick up only. You don't want to be shipping those things. that's for sure...
Sell as a package. Don't throw good money at disassembly.

Sold mine on craigslist. I've noticed that the tires (low quality as they are) are worth more to people than the wheels themselves, so even if you do break them down you'll get almost as much for the tires alone as for the wheels and tires together. However, then you're stuck trying to sell the wheels without tires, which, I've observed, is nearly impossible.

Better to keep them together.

Guess I would go with Ray's recommendation.
