View Full Version : What would you sell them for?

The Marauder I recently bought came with widened wheels and Nitto Drag Radials with 50-60% tread left..
It also came with 2 extra rims in ok condition, but I restored them to excellent condition. I then installed 2 new tires and they reside on the car now.
Since the car is going for sale soon, I do not stand to make a bigger profit by keeping the widened wheels on the car.
I was thinking about putting them on EBay for $750 plus shipping.
Here's the math:
2 Used Marauder Wheels: $400-600
2 Rim Widening Operations: $500
2 New Nitto Drags: $500-600
Shipping charges added between the 3 above: ~$100
Total: $1500-$1800

So does that seem fair, or should I ask more for them? :help:

What condition are the widened rims in?
I assume we are talking P305 555R Nittos?

I'd say you couldn't get more than @ $500.00 for the pair....:D

Zack, I am interested in these!

'PM' me with the details.

Thanks, Joe

Widened wheels with expensive tires on them is a complete waste of money for everyday driving, thats why I sold them.
For the strip, they are great.

Not to raise any :flamer: , but IMHO the DR are just not for the street. I tried the Nittos 305s on my widened rims, but could not take the jelly rolls picking up all the street trash. Bought blemished 8 x 10 Mustang rims for $90 each to use on the strip with the 305s. Then put the 295s with the widened rims on the street and they work great. The widened rims with 295s are required equipment with a SC to be really safe.

Yea, I was going to say the windened rims with tires must be a waste unless you drag everyday, or if you're making power that needs to hook up better.

I waited 'til this transaction was over so no flame fests would start, but I always thought that we weren't supposed to have for sale threads but instead we were supposed to use the classifieds. :confused:

Is this part of the "Miserable Moderator" hack? :D

I would not sell them.
I would put them on the car I am driving, ( when weather permits) and hope to pull up next to you, at a traffic signal. :rasta:
Too bad, Billy couldn't have given you the stock parts Too.
You could remove the inferior Air Pump and sell that seperate.


Then returning to N/A, you could complain, there were two missing bolts.

The end justifies the means I suppose....

Now, now..... that would NEVER happen.

Seriously, I don't think this is a big deal, congrats on the wheels Joe, hope to see them at the track this spring.
