Default For those of you that sold their stock wheels and tires

So, I'm getting new wheels and 37s along with my lift. 2010 Rubi. Hopefully going to try and mitigate some of the $$$ spent on the upgrades by selling some of the stock stuff. Do you guys/gals have any opinion on whether I'd have a better time selling these by remounting the tires back on the wheels and selling as a set OR keeping them separate, giving the option to sell individually? NO TPMS - putting on the new. The tires only have 640 miles, so pretty darn new. Thanks!

I figured since they don't have sensors might as well leave them off the rims.

I think selling them as a set especially ready to roll and with under 5% tread use will put a little $$$ back in your pocket

take a look at the forsale section, tire and wheel packages seem to go for a better dollar than split up.

Plus, at least around here, few tire places will mount tires on rims that they didnt sell. That was an issue i found at least.

I sold rims and tires with no valve stems. I put them on a main road chained to a telephone pole. I put them out on a Sat and a guy was picking them up on Mon for $300. and that was for SR-A's.

650 miles , you sholud move the set, someone out there wants to upgrade thier tires and rims.
As long as the price is reasonable.
I sold all five sahara tires and rims, with no tpms, regular valve mounted & balanced
