Default If You Were To Sell

Just a feeler here:

I have the stock wheels that came on my 2002 ZR2. They are in excellent shape for their age. Not bent, nicked, scratched or curb rashed. Complete, caps, nuts and covers.

Two have basically 2 ($275.00 m&b) brand new BFG Long Trail TAs, less than 500 mlies.
Two have fairly new BFG Long Trail TAs as well. Couple 1000 miles.
All 4 tires are 31/10.50 15

I took them off to put my new wheels and tires on. They will probably never make it back on the truck. Instead of them sitting in the basement and eventually dry rotting I'm thinking about selling them.

What are they worth and/or what would you sell them for?

Do you ever do any somewhat serious offroading?

If so, keep the rims and sell the tires and get another set of hardcore offroad tires. Much better than trying to find a set of tires that work great on and off road.

Otherwise, I sold my on road tires (not Long Fails) without rims for about $100 for a set of 5. Sold another set of mudders with black steelies for $200 for a set of five. These were all 31's and I had gone up to 33's.

4 of the 5 mudders were about 40-50% and the spare never saw the road. The on road tires were around 50-60%.

Nah, no serious off roading, occasional trail riding and such. I liked that part about long fails. I'm running BFG ATs right now. I figure if I sold them it would be better than them dry rotting in the basement. It's not worth it to me to buy another set of off roading tires for what little I do but I do see your point.

I sold my saw blade rims for $100 and my beat bfg a/t's for $50. my rims were in perfect shape as well I wouldn't expect more than $100 for the stock rims. you might be able to sell the tires for $200 if they are in pretty good shape
