I haven't seen the market for these - any of you been following it? I have the OEM 20" wheels and Pirelli P-Zeros that came on my 2014 991S that I pulled off at 500 miles and then put on a set of HRE's and Michelins. They've been in my basement since and my plan was simply to sleeve them in a dark corner, then pull them out and put back on the car when I sold it or traded it in. Well, I like the car so much that I'm not planning on swapping it out. And I'm re-tiring my HRE's with new Michelins right now. No point having them stacked in the basement as in another three years the rubber will be too old. So with no marks on the wheels, colored center caps and factory TPMS sensors - what's a good price to move these at? Appreciate all suggestions. I'll take better photos for when I run an actual ad.
I sold the same set of black ones from my GTS a few weeks ago. Advertised at $5k, sold for $4500. Lucky to find a buyer within a days drive to split the difference rather than ship.
One difference: mine had essentially zero mileage and we’re only a couple months old. They were swapped out right after my car rolled off the factory delivery truck in April.
I beleive a *new* set goes for $6500 at Suncoast, you can search my old posts to find the ad.
Depending on offset, the current bolts may not work for buyer.
One other thing, the TPS system had a change at one point and not all 991 systems talk to each other depending on model year....don’t know the exact cutoff— .1 to .2 perhaps?
Depending on where you source new bolts & senders, and who swaps them out, that can be significant cost to the buyer
Good luck, be patient!

I believe the change in TPMS happened with the 2017 model year cars. I bought winter wheels & tires from a prior 2016 GT3 and the sensors were not compatible with my 2017 991.2.
STG's estimate is about right: $2-3k. If you ship, I recommend using Shipnerd.com, a RL sponsor. Shipping should cost $100-200 (without and with tires).
I just purchased (stole) a set just like these and was looking for a while. Don't see them very often.
As a prospective buyer (I'll be looking for a 2nd set later this year and have been scoping the market) - the wheels are ~$2400-$3000 depending on buyer/shipping, but the tires are essentially worthless. the P-Zero from 2014 has been superseded by a substantially better tire.
I tried to sell my 981 boxster 20 inch carerra s wheels at one point (to buy forged). 4 of them used can be had for less than $1000. Many people had a set and couldn't sell them at all. You'll be lucky to get 2k for them.
Worth what you sell them for. I need rims. Not sure tires are good after sitting.
I would buy for $2k
Thanks for the input everyone.
Tires will be good because of the following (just as an FYI). Four years old. Porsche says in owner's manual replace after 6 years - I have a friend who is a tire engineer for Michelin and he tells me up to 8 years, still good to run them. Ozone deteriorates the tires, which is why I have them in the basement away from sunlight and the furnace (which emits Ozone) and sleeved so they are not exposed. So no worries on the P-Zeros they'll be good to go.
After everyone's input - I think $ 2,400 for the set (before shipping costs) is probably fair to everyone. Appreciate it!

Agree on all and fair asking $$. We're not talking about milk here.

Fair price for OEM wheels and tires?
