Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have the original 'turbo' style rims on my 01 S and just put brand new Pilots on less than 500 miles ago. I want to change the rims soon. Would it be better to sell them with the tires on or just the rims? Thanks, Gary

POST 2Original post

Sell the wheels separately. You should plan to re-use the Pilots on your new wheels. You won't get anywhere near your money back selling the used tires, so you'd have a net loss having to buy new ones for your new wheels.

POST 3Original post

Also, if you plan to ship the wheels, its a lot cheaper to ship just wheel than w + t.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks...any idea what a set of original wheel rims would fetch? There's only 16,000 miles on them and they are perfect...no scuffs or anything. Problem is they are a little dated so I don't know if there is even a market for them? Gary

POST 5Original post

What size?

POST 6Original post

I think it could range from $400-800 on eBay. You could also try Craig's List. It'd be nice to get a local buyer so you don't have worry about shipping.

POST 7 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

They are 18" wheels...so I guess 18 x 8 and 18 x 10? So where in LA would I go to get new rims? I see there is a place in Culver City called Wheel Enhancement...seems like they have a huge selection. Gary

POST 8Original post

I've heard good things about them... but they're authentic which = expensive. Save some bucks and try www.wheeldynamics.com .
