Default Whats it worth? OEM rims



They're dirty but they're in very good condition. Tires hold air and are in OK condition, nothing to write home about though. In the civic forum we have a thread for this, dunno how this goes on the accord forum.

Can't see the brand of tire and tread wear - or lack of. Me, $300 to $350

BTW - the FS thread is ---------->

With a pic like that i would offer 150 tops. They appear to have been stored outside which makes me think the tires are dry rotting and likely to wear excessively fast.

Turns out they weren't in very good condition. Besides the center cap chipping there was a little curb rash that was evident after i scrubbed the rim with some gojo. The tires were dry rotted, but nothing too bad IMO. They'll last at least a few thousand more miles, i'd prolly run them at least 5-10k more on a DD if the alignment is good and all that.

Ended up selling the odd set of three for a hundred. The buyer is a good guy and a friend of mine, he came over to help rebuild my Z6 a while ago. In 'very good' condition with barely used tires i can see them being worth $300 maybe even $400 on a good day. Then again, I once bought very good condition snow tires mounted and balanced on the rim (steel) for $25 each from a total stranger.

We're gonna buy a fourth rim so i guess that'l help determine the current market trend for these rims.

Wow. $300 in NC? Or even $400?
Sell them and run.

Here in So Cal. The price would be around $150-$200. With good tires.

Just a guess based upon one pic and old eyes. The only rims I've ever purchased in my life were a set of Chevy rally rims for the Chevelle (2 15X8 and 2 14X8) and the came with the center caps....I think that was around 1984 or so.....what were you doing in 1984?

I'll guess half of the ones in "So Cal" came from a car that was parked too long on the side of the road

I agree. For $3-400 take the money and run. I'd expect more like $75-100 at most for the set of wheels with those tire. Factory wheels just don't bring very much. 20 year old ugly factory wheels bring even less. $150-200 with good tires seems very accurate.

I dunno guys, 17 yr old civic Si rims sell for $300 all day. I'm thinkin if we can get that other rim for less than a hundred, closer to $50, it'l be good.

How much do you think a bare rim would cost?

Yeah, but how many people do you know that want to put these Accord wheels on lower model Accords? I've never seen a set. They don't have the demand of the Si wheels. Most people that would be interested in buying wheels, ditched these things. I have 2 sets of them at my house and run them on my beater.

As for the cost, I wouldn't pay $100 for one. $50 imo should be the max, although you may have trouble finding them. They weren't popular in 96 when they came out, and definately aren't now. I'd hit up some junk yards though as these cars are pretty common.

All 4 bare rims about $100-$120ish
for 1 rim you should only pay some $40 or even less.
Pick a part sells the rims around $30/rim. Not sure if there's one near you.

Of course all areas are different but that seems like a good number.

I was at a u pick today and i didn't see any. I'm assuming they'd want at least $50 for a rim with a worn out tire. Probably would say $75 if the tire had half it's tread left. I paid $35 for a 15" steelie with good tread on the tire.
