What do you do with the old wheels?

When we had warranty work done last month we had new 16" wheels and tires put on. We now have 15" wheels in good shape and tires that seem decent. Is there a market for them?

Yup, depending upon how you price ‘em. Might try and ad in the Forums classifieds and on your local Craigslist. There’s also several different general RV forums that you can put ‘em on. Use the same ad and cut n’ paste. Doesn’t cost you anything.

Just remember where you put your ads so you can take them down when the wheels are sold.

I bought a set of aluminum rims from a member of this forum. Try the classified parts on this site. Remember to say local only and state your location. Shipping has gone through the roof, which is why I dont shop large items on e-bay anymore. Craigslist is another option leave your phone number if serious about selling. Too many flakes using e-mail as only contact. Price it to sell... bought mine set for 200 including spare

I sold my 15's from my 2005 on Craigslist locally. The rims had a lot of filliform and the Maxxis tires were in good shape but about 5 years old. I got $125 for a set of 4. It took about a week to sell them, and lots of inquiries.

We sold ours to a friend who had fifth wheel using the same size. They were like new, no corrosion 4,000 miles for $500. He was glad to have them for his local camping use and they looked really good.

Thanks to all. They have been sold to a member of Air that is agreeable to both of us.
