Default C5 wheels and tires

I have a pair of Goodyear P245/45ZR17 and P275/40ZR18 tires with original wheels. Both are in good condition. I am looking to sell them because I bought new wheels and tires for my vette. Can anyone give me an idea of a fair price to ask for? Pics available upon request.

Are they wagon wheel or thin spokes? Are they painted or polished? It makes a difference when figuring price.

Just look in the C5 parts for sale section to see what similar wheels are going for. There are always stock ones for sale. Depends on the tire tread life left and kind of wheels. If it's the wagon wheels (stock 1997-1999) then you aren't looking at much. With good tires they go anywhere from $300-500. If it's thin spokes (2000+) then probably more like $400-700. This is just an estimate. Look at other for sale to see what current market value is.

It is a 2000 vette. They are the 5 spoke wheels, not the wagon wheels. Not sure if you would consider them painted or polished, painted I think.

About $400 for the wheels if in good shape with no curb rash. A little higher if high polished. Tires will depend on tread depth and how old they are.
