^^^
true true, forgot to take that into consideration.
i think he should add how many miles went on them, even if they are a month old.

he also has a nail in one of the tires... which reduces the price also...

I just did a quick lil research using one aftermarket part site and one tire store here in SD and here's a likely scenario:

PannAuto in San Diego charges $170 per 16in. 4x100 Rota Slip wheel brand new. $170 x 4 = $680 not including tax.
Assuming he's rolling on Falken Ziex ZE-512 205/40/R16, Discount Tire in SD charges $93 per tire, $372 total, adding $7 environmental fee, $10 disposal, and $64 labor installation, plus tax, he's looking at $486 out the door.
So it's possible that he paid at least, according to this scenario, just about $1,200 everything brand new.

if the "one month" story is true, then sure, he's probably got a legitimate price up even for a set of slips.
i'm not taking sides, but throwing a possible scenario so that everyone's not quick to jump the gun and start some unneeded bickering.
btw, that nail won't help either. haha.

GLWS.
Thanks, and you're right about the tires, but they're actually 215/40/Z16. Brand new everything was around a grand. I've come to realize that $800 may be a steep asking price so I'm open to lower offers.

And the nail- discount said they would fix it for free :-)
