Default Stock Tires

Those of you who have sold your stock wheels and tires, do you mind sharing what you were able to sell them for?

I'm looking to make more room in my garage and get rid of the 5 I have laying around.

Honestly depends on the tire size/wheel configuration, pimp. I sold my "pizza cutter" P225/75R16 Goodyear Wrangler SR-As and stock 16" steel wheels for about $150 bones for the set of five (5). They only had about 1500 miles on them and were in pretty good shape. Obviously, if you have a Rubicon, you might fetch a bit more of a premium for the alloy wheels and/or larger, more aggressively treaded 32" diameter tires. Good luck on the sale, son.

I had the 16" wheels and tires and I couldn't sell them.

I bought a set of Rubicon Wheels and Tires with 50 miles on them for $850. I feel like it was money well spent. I've seen them go for $500-600 (not locally) and I've also seen people trying to sell them for $1000+.

Really the best way to sell the stock tires is to list them as the tire size and not as Jeep Tires cuz you'll have more people want to look at your add if the tire fits their ride. In our case I sold mine via Craigslist, even though they were Rubi km2, to a guy who put them on his Silverado. As for the wheels you can check to see what other vehicles fit the bolt pattern but those might be harder to move as there are other issues like backspacing to take into consideration. Older Jeeps have a different bolt pattern and can't use them...

As Toad mentions you'll need more posts to list in the For Sale section so Craigslist would be the best way to go anyways. Just my
