If the tires were rotated, pull $40 outa your wallet to have them removed, trashed and recycled into basketballs. Then, sell the rims for $100 and buy me some Advils for the Migrane reading that post gave me.

Hopefully she did not have the tires rotated - you don't do that on a C5. As for the price, if the tires are like new they should be worth at least the $100 each. Then depending on what wheels are on the car, you can add some more.

I agree, tires, depending on brand/age, slightly used still seem to be in the $100-$150 range (ea).
Wagon wheels are great for trackers, but only worth selling locally in the less-than $200 range as shipping usually prices them out of their value. Spokes, in the $300 range, but again, shipping usually kills the deal.
