Thinking Of Selling Original 17Inch 6 Spoke On Ebay

[INSANITI]

how much do you think i should sell it for?

it has 235/45 michellin's pilot sport 3 (bout 3mm about the thread marker)

I have found that unless they are a large diameter or a highly 'in demand' type of rim, they don't sell well on ebay.

I had a set of 16in Maxima alloys a while back, in mint condition, I tried several times to sell them, even offered free shipping to anywhere in Qld, in the end I sold them for $25 for the set of 4 (without tyres).

yeah the 17s go for chump change

someone I know sold a set with near new tyres for $300

I just picked up a set of the concave V35 (base coupe?) ones off ebay for $130, just need to replace 2 tyres

Where as the 18s you are lucky to get them for $500 going upwards to 700 or so, AS they are a lot wider/better offset so are wanted buy a lot of other cars

350z 18" OEMs often go for as low as $200, typically $300-400 though. It really depends on the buyer/seller. The last set of V35 18" OEM wheels I saw sell (with decent tyres) for $300.

Ouch.... oh well, looks like i keep the originals and keep my 19s when Im trading my coupe to a new coupe. lolz

Its just the fact they are skinny and high offset, from memory 7.5/8.5 +30something so they are no real use to anyone, besides defect clearers

Where as say R33GTR as 17x9+30 a lot of people with sils, non GTR skylines and toyotas want them as they are a subtle rim that fits well and great for track ect so people still ask nearly 1K for ( besides the occasional bargain). Up untill recently you were paying minimum 2K for R34 GTR, but they have come down to mid teens of late. Same as the 17s are quite nice for a stock wheel, if they were a little wider and tad more concave I think they would be a lot more desirable

I had some enkei rims that I was trying to sell on ebay, that I got for free.

They were chrome which is why the probs didnt sell. I Ended up leaving them out the front on a council pick up as they were taking up space in my house. . . Some wheels are worth nothing.
