JAmacT Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 (edited) Hi everyone - So as you may know I'm giving away my DL wagon. But because I've lost so much money on it already and I hope to own another wagon in the future, I'm keeping the steel rims if I can. I might have to sell them with the car, however. If so, what what would you say would be a reasonable price for the rims alone? Thanks! Edited September 24, 2015 by JAmacT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivantruckman Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 are they wagon wheels , and do you have the center caps ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAmacT Posted September 24, 2015 Author Share Posted September 24, 2015 (edited) These are the original steel rims, no caps. Looks like online they go for about $50 - $70 each. I just had new tires put on, and the guys at the tire shop didn't see any issue with the rims at all.

l75eya Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 Just plain steel rims? Id say a set with brand new tires on them would go for $100 - $150? That's my guess. They're a done a dozen at a junkyard and the only thing worth money is the tires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAmacT Posted September 25, 2015 Author Share Posted September 25, 2015 Well, maybe so, but I'm going with the online price. I don't want to sell them, I want to keep them because the nearest junkyard to me is about a three hour drive one way. And the tires are brand new and cost me over $300. So, altogether, not worthless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flowmastered87GL Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 The steel wheels are not worth much since they are not of a desirable style. The new tires are the only thing worth anything. I agree with the $100-150 range though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAmacT Posted September 27, 2015 Author Share Posted September 27, 2015 Thanks, yes, I've decided that $120 for the rims is about right, but I hope all this is just to give me some peace of mind. Since I'm giving the car away a month after buying it, I can tell myself that between the rims and the tires, at least I didn't come way with nothing!
