what kinda rims? doesnt sound like that awsome of a deal considering most local ricer shops will sell u 17" rims and tires for around $400-500 bucks.

U want to sell sh*t fast, u practiaclly have to give it away...

Dont expect to make any kind of return..

IE. Bought a set of generic 18" wheels/tires, had them for a year...spent like 1200 with tires on them....

Sold them with good tires...300+ shipping...they sold in 4 hours.

They sold fast that low but i lost my ass.I sat on them for 6 weeks with no interested buyers when i was asking 650, about 1/2 what i paid new, but...at the same time, i needed the cash, and $300 is more then I had when they were sitting in my garage taking up space.

Obviously not, or you wouldnt be sitting hear whining about how you can't sell anything.

So you add shipping + material, thats going to be another $100-120+, so now the total cost to the buyer is MIN $650. For $100 more they could buy them locally new with a warrentee and not have to worrie about the risk of loosing money by buying over the internet and shipping BS.

Not bashing/flaming/arguing at all, just stating theyre really not a screaming deal and thats why you sit on sh*t so long.

there's the C8's for $430, so you have tires at 550(couldnt find the C10's)....your deal is fair, but youre going to sit on them for a while..try Ebay.
