I am looking to purchase a new 2014 TL SH-AWD this weekend and it has these 18" wheels/tires on it. I really like the Advance wheels but may look for an aftermarket 19" combo. What would these new wheels/tires be worth if I tried to sell them on here or eBay? Trying to gauge whether I should pop for the wheels before I take home the new car or wait until I've had it for a while.

That's just the wheels. With new tires on them you'd think probably $1500-1600 easily, right?

potmilkz

lol nope.. probably 1100-1200 max..

if you sell them separately maybe?

Keep the OEM 18" for snow tires.

Agreed, there's a huge drop off for OEM wheels when selling them as a package. Especially for common ones like those, I think 09-11' AWD wheels are a hotter commodity and sell for more.

OP don't be fooled by this, you can price your items for whatever you want, the question is will they sell?


+1, I think you'd make more if you sold them separately than as a package. For example TPMS are retailing for +80 each, yet don't even dream about selling them for that much, you'll be lucky to sell a set for over $100. Those OEM tires retail for around 200 a piece, no way in hell will you get $800 for them, same goes for the wheels. But if you sell them separately you might be able to sell each item for near retail. Smart buyers will want to buy as a package to get the better deal.

Also a good idea.

1,100 to 1,200 for stock?

Damn, I was going to sell a perfect condition set of forged 3 piece 20's with tmps and tires for 1,500. Good to know.

potmilkz

if you sold your forged for 1500.. then you are missing out on alot of money

Not really, man. After all the low balling iwill end up at less than 2k anyway. I will just use the money to buy another set anyway.

What do your 20s that you're thinking about selling look like. Question 2, if I change out the wheel size, I know the TPMS sensors must be reprogrammed to the right tire inflation, can that be done on your own or does a dealership have to do it? Also, can you use the same TPMS sensors for different wheels or is it easier to have different sets of sensors for each set of wheels, assuming I keep a set of wheels/tires for winter.

I know that our OEM tpms learn and don't need to be programmed. Aftermarket ones I believe need to be programmed.
