Title: Help me price wheels and tires
Post by: BigJerm on January 24, 2009, 04:17:37 PM
Alright so.... Need some help from you tire guru's on the price I should ask if I get rid of them. I have the stock Rubicon wheels and tires(32"), somewhere between 11,500 and 11,600 miles on the currently. Will be no more than 12,000 on them when I take them off. No plugs, patches, only a few lugs have a little chunk missing. Rotated all 5 at 6k so the spare has only 6,000 miles on it. The scratches on the rims seem to be surface, they are not deep at all and I do have the missing center cap that is missing from the spare.

Help me price just the tires, and then the tires and wheels together. Thanks guys. I want a good price but one that will move.

The 4 rims currently on the Jeep and a picture of the tread:

And the spare:

You're getting rid of them a week after I got mine. Really Jerm?  8==D

With the rock rash I'm betting $500+-50.

edit: Just tires: $350ish...

Seems high to me.  Especially if you want to move them.  I haven't been watching CL though, so I could be wrong.

Doesn't seem high to me from what I've seen. I've heard you can clean the wheels up and hit them with clear coat and the light scuffs like that will disappear. Not sure though, as I have not tried it.

I dont think the 37's are going to happen now... Just a little to much work and money (I need a spare tire carrier, price on tires is awesome) and its really just more than I can do now.

Trim fenders = free.
Carry spare in back of JK = free.

I'm failing to see the problem.

That's what I thought too at first but then I thought what if one day I follow Will through some nasty mud ruts, blow a tire and now I got a muddy 37" tire inside my jeep... A jeep is a jeep and all but no thanks on that! I still got to get groceries in this thing!

...or better yet, find me some RR rockers for under $350 shipped and I'll give you a tarp.

Don't worry, Ben has nothing on me! When we were at Beasley and he attempted a climb and his front end was in the air and about to go over I am sure he didnt mind the "shape" I was in when I jumped on his front bumper and my probably 270-275 lbs at the time to keep him from putting the shinny side down  {toast}
