Wheels or Wheel with Tires

If I am getting ready to sell some wheels would it be better to sell w/tires or without? Thanks

Cool

"Better" for who?

Are the tires pretty much worn out? If so, it would be a little easier and cheaper to remove them and ship just wheels.

If the tires have some life left, someone might want them for spares.

Good luck either way.

If there is a good amount of tread left someone may want both.

What wheels are you selling?

They are Volk TE37 w/Falken tires. I am not sure yet whether to sell with or without tires. The tires are 95+%. Not sure what to replace them with yet.

try selling them together first so you dont have to pay to dismount them

And also dispose of them if they don't sell on their own. The upside is shipping without tires is cheaper...

I have not sold them because I decided to put 18" Sport Designs on the car and cannot find a set for the right price. So until then I keep the Volks.
