Level & Wheels/Tires
I'm getting my Bilstein 5100s (purchased through , AJUSA/
) put on tomorrow and swapping out the stock 17" wheels/tires with MB Wheels Razor 17" wheels wrapped in BFG AT 285/70/17 tires. I'll put up before and after pictures tomorrow.
I've got just over 6000 miles on the current tires. I see them listed, new, with a 60,000 warranty, so I think it is fair to say they have ~90% tread left on them. I've looked in the FS section here but don't see any for sale. I'll most likely sale them to a neighbor in need, or list them on CraigsList. I'm interested in any thoughts on what anyone in a similar position has sold them for. I've seen them used in a wide price range (locally on CL and EBay). I don't care to deal with shipping and prefer to stay local for a variety of reasons.
Also, for those that have done this with new vehicles, did you sell the wheels as well and any input on a fair price for those? There's a place locally here that only deals in OEM wheels so I may see if they want to buy them, though I'm sure what they would offer is less than their value (they gotta make a buck too).

I put pictures in an album under my profile. Still interested in what folks think is a fair price for tires with 6k miles on them and if there is any market for 17" OEM wheels.
BFG AT 285/70/17 on MB Wheels Razors 17" Bilsteins one notch from highest, no rubbing on valence or suspension. I think the wheels are offset 6.
