Talking Need your input....

Need your advise... My friend is in need of money and is selling his rims. Although I don't need them, I thought I would help him out by purchasing them.
I'm not sure if I will keep them or sell them and it's why I need to know what they are worth.
I don't want to low ball him, however I don't want to pay more than they are worth in today's market.
So here is where your valued knowledge and advise comes in... Please let me know more or less how much I should pay for them.

They are authentic CE28s... The tires are almost new and come with the rims. See them below (Click on the Pic for better look):

Why don't you loan him the money so he can keep the rims

To be of better help; what are the specs & condition of the wheels along with the tires? Are they authentic CE28s? They look to be but cant be sure from the finish of the wheel; looks repainted.

I agree with JP. It would help a lot to know the specs of the wheels.

The rims are authentic CE28s, 17"... The tires are Sumitomo, almost new and come with the rims.
I didn't bother to get the rim specs but suspect that they are the same as stock.

Any advice on how much will help...

Thanks JP and everyone that has shimmed in...

If he needs a certain amount of $$ buy them for that price. At least then if he wants them back you can sell them for same price. After all you are friends...

If not, sell them on the boards bay area pawn star style.

Yeap, sounds like a plan, however I want to be fair and like to have an idea how much they are worth or how much I can get for them so that I won't loose out...

I'll give you a guess that's as good as the info you gave us. 3000 dollars give or take a few thousand depending on size.

Get the specs so the people above can help you.
