Value of used 16x8" gta wheels +tires

I'll be selling my used gta wheels to a friend of mine and want to know what a fair price is. Right now just discussing the idea over beers we figure around 600$

These are 4 front wheels with a polished dish. Tires are 245/50/16 Firestone firehawk with lots of tread left. It's been garage kept but tires are going on maybe 4 or 5 years old.

Is 600$ Canadian just giving them away? I'm keeping center caps and lug nuts

I sold a set gold cross lace 16" GTA wheels for $600 US in good, "non-curbed condition". This was a few years ago, so perhaps the market changed. I sold with center caps, but no lug nuts.

Re: Value of used 16x8" gta wheels +tires

I bought a full set of zero offset classic industries repops for $400 with decent tires. The wheels were daily driver material with a few scratches.

Nice upgrade from my stock 15" dry rotted tires I was running.....

Re: Value of used 16x8" gta wheels +tires

I can't seem to find away to purchase these new Hawks 17x9s by the time I pay for shipping, duty and exchange. It's making me rethink selling my wheels. I could be into new wheels for over 2600$. I guess if you want something bad enough.

I might just drive south and pick them up to save a few hundred$$

Thanks for all the replys everyone

I spent the same amount on wheels for my tacoma and purchased the rims first and waited till duratracs went on sale. This made me think I wasn't spending lots of money because two weeks past before I had tires for it. Makes no sense but I might have to try this again

Re: Value of used 16x8" gta wheels +tires

We ship wheels all the time to the great white north - does the $2,600 include tires? Shipping is around $125 and duties/transfer tax are around $300 - at least from the last time we sent a set up there...

I've calculated to get 4 rims is around 1400$ by the time it's at my door. Figured around 1200$ for good tires bringing me to roughly 2600$ all in. Shipping, duty, brokerage fee, exchange drive up the cost big time.
