Ballpark value of Champion RG5s

i was looking at selling my RG5s to go with a simpler star type pattern wheel (RUF/Techart). I realize that those are cast rather than forged and weigh more but for me the weight issue isn't a big deal.

the wheels are in excellent condition and are 19".

what is a fair market value on these? with or without tires.

I'll say $1800 to $2200 for wheels.

Can't comment on tires as don't know make or condition.

Cool

Sounds about right for the market.

It seems like that are a lot of nice wheels for sale right now.

If they were 18's, I'd make you an offer.

I can't seem to give my set of RH's away.......

I'd guestimate at least 5 -8 lbs.

The Techart's I looked at were pretty heavy.

That's a fair price for cast wheels.
There are some black champion 171s in the fs section for around 3k, that's a steal, no connection, blah, blah. just passing on a good deal. Might be interested myself at some point. Sorry 4 the hijack.

Champion RG5's are forged, not cast.
