Default bbs wheels

I didn't really want the bbs wheels when I got my new sti but the only one local came with the navi(which my gf really wanted) and the bbs package. I am going to sell the wheels as soon as I decide which new wheels to get seeing as I wouldn't use them for winters either. My question is what would be a fair asking price for them when I sell them? Thanks for any help. Casey

I'd say 1.00 to me AND I can pick them up because I live in mass. and have a house in Danbury VT!!!!!

On a serious note, although I'd love to have them, I'd say the same as above. 1500.00 sounds fair and it all depends on with or without tires.

Brand New 05-07 rims in perfect condition get from 700-1000.00 to put it in perspective.

2k at least. Dont let people lowball you, others WILL want them, and they are way nicer than previous years.

Those are 17"s though.
18's esp with tires on it would be considerably worth more.

That being said, I couldn't personally spend more than 1200-1300 on just wheels. If the price range went into 1700-2000 I would have to ask why a person wouldn't buy volks or advans which weigh loss and get you a more personal look.

Tell your gf to use mapquest and get one with standard rims
Edit: Just noticed you already got the car, congrats. I hope you get a fair buck for your rims.

thats why I said the amount that I said. When you creep up to 1700.00 people are just going to go Advan or Volk not STi stockers.

Very nice rims though I'd love to have them.

That's not too bad considering you could probably sell the base STi wheels for a good chunk of change too.. a lot of people prefer the 5 spokes to the bbs even

I'm actually looking to sell my 5 spokers with tires (800 miles on them).
