If I were you, I'll keep them in yr garage! You find yrself desperately looking for stock wheels when you sell your car years later. Ppl will treat yr wheels like a piece of junk now and will only offer really low price for it. But when you try to buy them back, you'll find the wheels worth a lot than what you're selling now!!!!
I dont think you'll sell yr Monoblock V together with yr car, right?

First off, I wouldn't sell the stock rims, since you won't get jack, as others have said. In turn, what do you need winter wheels in Florida for, so it's obviously your choice in this area.
As for the Brabus Monoblocks, they're quite heavy. Don't get me wrong, I love the wheels, but the increase in unsprung weight will not enhance the performance of your Coupe. If it's just going to be a cruisin' car, then don't worry about it.

I dont think ill sell them, but If I get a good deal i might.. since I need the $$$....
Also I dont really care if they are that heavy, since Ill be adding a chip, a pulley kit and an exhaust in the future..
