Wheel Pricing

[salkire]

Hi all!
First time posting and first time Wrangler owner and I'm absolutely loving the JL. Anyway, I'm looking to do a wheel swap to upgrade to the rubicon wheels. My question is:
What is fair price to list my current wheel-set?
5 tires - Goodyear Wrangler All-Terrain Adventure 245/75R17 on Tech Silver Aluminum wheel (~6000mi)

I'm estimating to list them around $800 thinking someone will want to negotiate. I'm completely new to this so I don't really know who to ask.

I think it varies a lot based on location, but just as an example I bought 5 rubicon wheels in Seattle for $900. They had been posted for about a year already too before I bought them.

I purchased a set of the Sport S wheels with Goodyears (same as yours) with < 1000mi on them, TPMS included, still mounted and balanced, for $500 (Portland, OR) about a year and a half ago off of Craigslist. I doubt I would have paid much more than that.

Knowing what I know now, I wouldn't have got them at all - I really don't like those Goodyear tires, but that's just this guy's opinion.

The wheels are what they are - they're too narrow for larger tires and they look like a generic painted silver wheel. They're fine if you want to stick to OEM size tires (which I do). Aftermarket wheels are not very common in narrow sizes, but I can't imagine anyone would want this wheel except the poor slobs with the minivan steelies that come on Sports (I was in this camp).

Your buyer is likely going to be a base model Jeep buyer who was too poor or too cheap to spring for a Sport S (like me! ), so I would expect they'd only open their wallet for a bargain.

Thanks for the honest answer!
