How much are my wheels worth?

I'm trying to get an accurate idea of what my wheels are approximately worth, as I am contemplating swapping wheels.

What should I ask for 20x8.5/20x10.5 SL65 AMG-style, chrome, split 5 spokes with chrome lips/hardware?

They are currently wearing Toyo S4 Proxies, 245/35/20 and 295/30/20...how much should I ask if I sold with tires?

Can anyone offer me approximate with/without tire rates that I could expect if selling the set?

Thanks!

Looks like 1690 or so new. Guess I should ask a couple hundred less for wheels alone?

$1690 new is waaaaaay too much for reps. Why don't you check the classifieds and see how much reps are going for there. For that price you could get some nice Forgestars.

$1000.00 with tires (If tires are 75% remaining or more). Used wheels and tires are worth next to nothing.

Especially replicas with an MS AS rated tire that doesn't really have a good rep on google.

yeah I'd agree with most...they are reps so around a grand maybe $800 for the set of wheels with tires for a quick sell...

what did the previous owner do with the factory set of SL65 wheels/tires?
