What is best way to sell wheels/tires?

I am selling my 996C4S so i am having the original wheels and tires put back on. I would like to sell my 19" Kahn Design RSC 2pc. wheels and new 19" Michelin PS2 tires. Any suggestions on pricing, where to advertise, and how to ship??? They look so great on my car, but the Porsche dealer said most buyers want stock wheels. Thanks for your help!

YES - they are the RS-C 2pc. My tires are new Michelin Pilot Sports. 19". They show the wheels on the Kahn Design website on some 996's, Ferraris, etc. I took some pics today, but for some reason cannot get them to upload. If you are interested, pm me your email and I can send you pics and specs of tires/wheels.

yes, I have an estimate to take out two curb scratches for $280 from a really good wheel repair business. I just don't have a truck to get them to/from the shop! I put my original wheels/tires back on my Porsche to sell it.
