How much are these wheels worth?

I need to sell my old wheels and I'm struggling to come up with a fair price.

They are a set of staggered 20 inch American Racing Torq Thrusts mounted and balanced on Yokohoma Paradas (2X 255/35, 2X 275/35) in good shape (I think they have about 6,500 fairly easy miles on them). One of the rear wheels has a bit of small pitting in the chrome, unfortunately, but that's the only defect.

Ebay listings tell me that the rims themselves sell for ~$900, but mine are used and come with tires, so I'm not really sure how much to ask for here. Any help would be much appreciated.

300-400 dollars. You can ask for whatever you want, you just have to find someone who will pay it.

$300-$400 total? Or per tire? That's what stock 17s typically go for and I'd be willing to bet that these are worth at least a bit more.

That's where I was leaning towards.

But try and keep it around $980, just try to mess with the mind of the prospective buyer and make them thing they're getting a extra good price.

Are those the wheels from the Mustang?

They're only worth what someone will pay for them when it comes time to exchange actual money. I'd love for you to get 1000 for them but I don't think you will.

Yup. I haven't been on here in forever with updates as to how that's going. Picked up a set of black TSW Valencias that look so, so much better.

I'm quickly finding that I don't think I will either. Thanks for the input.

Craigslist indeed. I fucking hate dealing with craigslist, but the newspaper classifieds just doesn't really do it anymore.

Not a great pic, but that's the general idea.
