Default Rubicon Wheels & Tires - Take Off Worth?

I have about 8,500 miles on my 07 Rubicon. I am going to be changing out for some new wheels and tires. How much are the 5 wheel/tire combination worth? Is there a place you would suggest posting? Just trying to help pay for a fraction of what I am going to be spending. Thanks.

Hmm...maybe you could try the "For Sale" forum here on the JK-Forum. If you do a search you will find a lot of people who are selling, or have sold theirs. Price yours accordingly. Good luck.

Had over 5000 miles on my Rubicon tires and rims and sold all five for $800 on craigslist. Might have been able to get a little more but wanted them out of the garage.

I wonder if the TPS in the 08s will make the package worth more? I also wonder if you will get a warning light if the new wheels don't have TPS installed.

I'd really like it to tell me what the pressure is instead of just a light illuminating when the pressure is low.

Jeepbozo - I don't think that is a bad price as I have been reading what the wheels are selling for in for sale section. Thanks.

I would think $700 or $800 would be reasonable for that many miles. Once you go over 10,000 I would think that people would want to get a much better deal.

Sold mine for $550.
I know I could have gotten more, but I didn't want to deal with shipping, and I'm moving soon so I was sort of anxious to get them out the door, so I settled a little.
