Minnesota Rubicon wheels

[Grayone]

My 2023 Wrangler Rubicon just landed. And I have taken an instant dislike for the polished face wheels. As take offs, what is a realistic asking price, as I decided to go aftermarket even before I take delivery? Thanks in advance.

You need to look up Craigslist for the going price where you live.

Good luck.

Could do that, but Craigslist and Facebook are a swamp full of scammers and dreamers. Think I would rather have them as flower planters! But thanks for the suggestion.

Yes, they are. I'm at the point now where I'll advertise my stuff just on the related enthusiast forum (Jeep, motorcycle, etc.) or eBay, if said stuff can be easily shipped.

Have a look at the Member Marketplace here to take a temperature check on pricing trends for the same or similar wheels.

there are bots on craigslist now that will text you within 3 to 5 minutes of any post trying to get you to respond and give them some kind of verification code “to prove you’re a real seller “ so they can hack your account.

I've never had any luck selling OEM wheels, maybe a coupe hundred for the set. But if you pull them immediately, shop them around to body shops and wrecking yards as insurance quality. New OEMs from the dealer are a fortune.

About $400 for all 5 wheels only. $1200-1400 for 5 wheels/tires and tires depending on whether they Are BFGs or Falkens. You'll have a tough time selling 4, unless a Gladiator owner is looking.

Yeah, $500 a wheel parts guy mentioned, how accurate that is I don't know. Dealership is offering $50 a wheel on trade. Hmmmm???

I will be selling all 5. Trouble is dealership knows the PITA it is selling takeoffs, shipping, ect. So they lowball big time. May end up stacked in the corner of the garage for $250 trade value!

Just bought 4 of these Gladiator Moab with Wildpeaks (350 confirmed miles) for $650. They had a set of Rubicons take offs for $700 about 200 miles. Both Wildpeaks 285/70/17. Charlotte NC area.

That is insulting.

Are these rims the 2023 “used to be standard” machined face Rubi rims, but now an $1100 upgrade rims?

I'd say $100/wheel is on the high end, but maybe? My dealer was selling five takeoffs (with tires) for $500 six months ago. Honestly, they practically have to give them away, $100/each and the tires are free so they don't to pay the tech to dismount them.

Are you talking wheels alone or wheels and tires? For 5 brand new wheels alone (<100 miles), I think $500 would be a fair price. That is what I paid for mine.
