I'd ask for more than that, esp if they come with tires. I'd ask atleast 600, you should sell them pretty quick for 600.

I sold wheels on the net before and such a pain, thats why I thought I would try local first. I like the deep dishers but they don'nt look right if you use the stockers on the front and I dont mean the color of the wheels I just mean the dont look right!! What do you guys think?

$200 - $300 for rims only. $600 with tires sounds about right, though perhaps a tad on the high side. As a rule of thumb, I take cost new and then use %50 of that for selling used if in good shape. So you figure the rims are $125 each plus tires at about $125 each PLUS $80 to mount and balance (which is already done). That adds up to $1080, so 50% puts you at $540.

I just paid $600.00 for 4 used bullit wheels with tires. The tires are 50% worn and the rims have slight curb rash. I wish I had found you one day earlier. they wew on e-bay and I picked them up locally, no shipping costs.

if the tires are in good shape and the wheels look like brand new, you should have NO problem getting $600 for them.

Id start at 600, but you will probably have to go lower to move them.

I just got my chrome 17" bullitts with tires for 600 a month ago. the backs were 275s also , but I got a steal.

Deep dish 18" rims in back, stock 17" rims in front is what I would like to have on my GT. I think thats what most people go with. Or at least deep dish 17'' in back and stock in front. Makes it stand out more, IMHO.

Jeez, what tires did you have on them? how much tread left? what condition were the rims in?
If that's true I could upgrade to a saleen 18 package and apply what i make from my stock 17 bullits/wheels and be in great shape.....

They were in great shape, barely 2k miles on them. Excellent tread. I used most of the $ to payback my sister for buying tires for the new wheels.
