Fair price for stock alloys?

I put my stock alloys and tires on CL for $400, and the only person who replied wants to lowball me. Perfect condition, 5k miles on tires -- what's a fair low price? I feel like $400 is pretty close, lol.
Thanks!
 
Keep them! I just picked up a set of 4 Team Dynamics wheels and lug nuts all nib never installed for 250 bucks from a local Spec Miata racer that changed direction. So I would not pay more than 200 for OEM wheels and that is only to run in HS autocross class.
 
I would but I don't have anyplace to keep them -- right now they are in my spare bedroom.
 
I sold mine to a friend with a ZX2 Escort for $350 with crap tires (10-20%)
 
I wouldn't go lower than $400. I sold mine for $400-$500, I can't remember. The OEM wheels look great IMO, and with only 5k on the tires and TPMS already installed, its a good deal. Just don't try to sell them to a motorsport enthusiast.

Oh, thanks! I forgot about the TPMS... yeah, I feel like the set is worth $400. I don't see myself needing them anymore...

$400 for a set of stockers with everything is not a bad deal at all! I've seen them for $250 per wheel... And mind you, that's ONLY the wheel.. No TPMS or tires!
 
Yeah, the only serious offer I got was for $270 -- for all 4! I think I'll just keep them rather than let them go that cheaply. At mazda-parts.com they want $197 per wheel -- I figure I can just slap them back on if I trade anytime, or just use as spares in case I case a wheel in a pothole or something...
 
I'd say that's more than a fair price. I listed my tires on CL for $270, since I was getting summer rubber and my stock tires only had 600 km on them. Some guy offered me $150 for all 4. I decided just to keep them.

You think $270 is fair for 4 alloy wheels, tires, and TPMS?

It would be a great deal for whoever is buying them, but a terrible deal for you. What I was trying to say was that $400 for your wheels, tires, and TPMS was an amazing deal as is. A steal IMO. Buying those wheels from the dealer costs over a grand. But people on CL are always trying to lowball you, so you get crap for offers. I would say that unless you can get $400 or more, keeping it all is worth more than selling. Ultimately, that's why I decided to keep my tires.
 
Ok, cool -- thanks! When I first read your reply I was like, Wuht? LOL Lowballers suck!
