what are my rims worth? HELP ME

i have NO idea what kind of rims are on my car..i have researched and asked around on the net etc and i can't figure it out. There are no markings to distinguish them on the rim either! Anyways, i'm thinking of parting the car out and a few people have asked me about my rims. BUT i have NO CLUE how much they are worth, what do you think they are worth ladies and gentlemen? or what would you pay for them, given that u like them haha.
i'll just convert it to cdn afterwards.thanks
Kyle
there is MINOR MINOR curbage on one rim from the previous owner and the rubber is VERY good..at LEAST 60%
p.s. they are a bit darker than in the pic

I agree. It really depends on how much you want the money. If you really don't mind hanging on to them too long then I'd say ask $600. There are plenty of uninformed buyers out there... you just have to wait for them to find you. The sad truth is that the majority of people are label whores and most won't even consider buying a wheel without knowing its manufacturer. If you're looking to unload them fast I'd go with about a $300 asking price.

Indeed. They're nice...but not $650 nice. Personally I'm not a fan of the 6 spoke design, but whatever. When I got rid of the wheels that came on the Mustang (some idiot had the balls to throw 14" aftermarket wheels on it), I think I sold them for about $100 with tires.

Hmmm...or not.

One problem I'd have with selling on Ebay is shipping. I'm just too damn lazy to package up 4 wheels with tires and haul them over to UPS or Fed Ex. Shipping would be a bit expensive, too.

When I shipped my wheels off, I went to UHAUL to get boxes. I then shipped it in two seperate boxes via UPS. If you have one of those UPS warehouses, I would suggest taking it there rather than place like "The UPS Store." It only cost $70 to ship.
