![]() Prices for used parts on our cars seem to be cheapening, as the real question becomes, "hey e90poster, when do you plan to trade in your car for a new one?"Ī BMW service tech told me he's had a number of people complain after theyĭitched their run-flats saying their car doesn't handle as well as it did previously.īecause the suspension was tuned with and for run-flats. Not easy to market oem wheels, maybe it's easier for someone who lives in a BMW / population dense market like LA, but not here. ![]() Basically only able to sell 2 to someone who cracked one. Selling the wheels has been a slow process. I deliberately timed the purchase to coincide with changing my tires, so I didn't need to worry about the tires in the equation (and I was changing rim diameter / width anyhow). Last year, I decided to go aftermarket wheels and I did the Apex EC-7s. Maybe a BMW owner parting out their car before trade might want them, I"m not sure who else would. ![]() We have a used tire dealer in Tampa with a broad selection of tires and the run-flats sell for a price concession. I don't think the market is great for used run-flats. Your 162s are nice wheels but I doubt you'd see more than $500 for wheels alone. ![]() Shipping puts a big hole in the economics for both buyer and seller. Even more so if you try to sell tires along with them. Shipping costs have increased: if you sell on ebay or here, it will cost you probably 30-40 per wheel to ship over 1000 miles. I would first try selling on your regional forum or craigslist. ![]()
