So I just put some 20" GMC OEM stock rims (painted black) on my tahoe..

I have my set of 16" Z71 rims w/ practically brand new tires on them just sitting in my shop.
Should I keep them for later as a "just in case" set. Or should I sale them to get them out of the way?

The tires on them have maybe 3-5k on them and they're just sitting there gathering dust doing nothing.

I figure most people keep the stock tires to put on during winter months, but since the ones I bought are already stock tires, should I just sale these 16s?

If it was me I'd keep 'em unless someone happened to just offer me something I just couldn't refuse or I just had to have the room.

your in Texas When do we swap out are rims during the winter? I was holding on to mine for years and finally decided it was a waste of space and they were never going back on. I actually got a decent amount of cash for them and recycled the money into audio goodies for the Tahoe.

Up here we get some pretty good snow sometimes.... This year wasnt so much but previous years we've had a shit ton.

If I were to sale them, how much does everyone think I should put on em? Like I said, practically brand new tires.

Really, I would think it comes down to:
How much space do you have?
How much is your space worth to you?


For instance; I have less than a 1k square foot house and no garage, so space is at a premium.

Since you don't need the wheels and IF you do not need the money, now is the best time to sell, you can ask what you think they are worth and let them sit until someone offers you a fair price. Sit on them for a year or two, the tires will be bad, and you will be so sick of looking at them, you will take a *****'s price for them just to get them out of your garage.

If you can throw up some decent pics of the stockers we can probably give a decent price to set them at in case you sell. Having brand new tires will be a good selling point.

Blah blah.....you will take a *****'s price for them just to get them out of your garage.

:Handshake:
I agree. If you don't think you will need them, put them up for sale NOW so you don't later, rush and sell them for less then what they are worth. I do that crap all the time and I get aggravated with myself.
