Default How much should I sell my OEM rims/tires for?

How much should I sell my 17" chrome OEM rims and tires for? I just upgraded to after market 20's and have no need for the 17"'s. I also need a 20" spare. Any suggestions?

Wow, that's pretty good if DallasRam could find a buyer that fast and easy. I'm just wondering if that's a good price?

A guy at work offered 600, but he wants to pay them out. No way Jose!

How would I ship them. The tires are 29" tall and weigh over 60 pounds each.

Sounds like a good reason to take a few days off work, fill the cooler with beer and make a road trip out of it!

as far as the spare goes. Try and get an OEM 20 inch steel spare. The cable and grapple that hoists it up under the truck needs a rather large hole for the grapple to fit through plus have you ever dropped the spare after 6 months of driving. Woah boy! you'll be sorry if you sling an expensive bling spare up under your truck.

My Ram came with 20's but I put on a set of the 03 Laramie 17 inch painted cast aluminums for wintertime driving. I was able to pick up an OEM 17 inch spare off of ebay for $10.00 plus shipping.

I just measured the stock tires and they are almost 30 inches tall (245/70R17) Michelin LTX A/S. I measured them five times from all different anlges to make sure and every time it came out between 29.5 and 30 inches. I didn't belive it at first but it's true. My new 20's are 33.5 inches tall (275/60R20). I measured the top of my tailgate saturday with the stock tires at 55 inches from the ground, now I read the gate at 58.5!!
The wheels are 17" x 8" Chrome. My odometer read 7800 miles when I switch them out.

oh yeah 5 x 5.5 bolt pattern and I'm in dallas tx
