So i bought this van from a lil ol'granny apparently she took her van to some tire shop and they told her she needed rims and tires ect. Well they put American racing rims on the van... I bought the van and it was a TOTAL junker the rims are literally the only thing on them worth anything. So here is a pic.. I need to know what kind these are and how much they are worth? Please help me! Thanks.

If you look at the back side of the wheel there should be some sort of logo, trademark, manufacturer name, or even a serial number. That will tell you who makes them and what style of wheel it is. They don't look like anything AR makes that I can find.

Second, get some Sonax Full Effect wheel cleaner and clean them. They look horrible.

yea... the rims look horrid cuz we live in the mountains and red dirt is HARD to avoid ... Anyway the car died today on the road about 10 miles away and so i cant actually check we were gonna go take the rims off tonight and leave it there to be towed by CHP but i think we are just gonna sell it to a pick and pull tonight instead she is gonna get back to me in the morning. /sigh..

Appear to be 14x6. Chrysler minivan? If so, small van is 5x100 pattern, large van ("Grand") is 5x114. If they are 14", you might be able to get something for them as snow tire wheels.

I'd guess that used, even cleaned up nicely, you *might* get $100 for all 4, probably more like $60-80.

If they're 15", figure $100-150 if you find the right person.
