Default Winter wheel package

I just bought these but moving to Charlotte and will likely no longer need them. Aftermarket twists with nearly new (less than 1500 miles) Blizzak LM-25's.

2 17x7.5 Sport Edition Cup 3 Silver 52mm
2 17x9 Sport Edition Cup 3 Silver 47mm
2 205/50VR-17 Bridgestone Blizzak LM-25 XL
2 255/40VR-17 Bridgestone Blizzak LM-25 XL

These are in near perfect condition with only the slightest of faint imperfections on the passenger rear wheel. Offsets are for 996/boxster. $600 for a set that cost $1700 new. You know there will be more cold and poor weather days coming...

You sound like the guy that sold me a brand new set of 18" Audi S4 OEM rims for $400. As we were loading them up into my car, he told me he must have underpriced them since he was being bombarded with messages for them. I just smiled as I finished loading them into my car and said yes, they were underpriced. I would have paid a whole lot more.

But you aren't really too underpriced. Your rims are not OEM. You should have cleared at least 50% of what you paid though based upon the condition and the remaining tread life. I just sold a pair of beat up Audi S4 17" OEM rims with worn out Blizzaks for $400 and my buyer thought he was getting a good deal.

Thanks for confirming that I should have asked at least $850 instead of $600

Thats 20% underpriced from your "fair" price and $1100 less than buying new which these pretty much are
