4 wheels, 3 tires - now what?
4 wheels, 3 tires - now what?
Hi - I posted this over in the wheels/tires forum but no replies/opinions/thoughts. Heck, not even a rude comment.
We're always a more active board anyway and if there's a solution for these wheels/tires, it'll hopefully be local. So, if you can help... here it is:
Hey there, looking for some advice and opinions.
I tore up one of my OEM Pirelli tires yesterday (split the sidewall) so I now have 4 S-Lite wheels and 3 remaining run-flat tires.
I've already ordered new, lighter wheels/non-run-flat tires from Edge Racing which should be here Wed/Thu.
So, what would you recommend I do with the other ones? I don't live in an area where I need a set of winter tires. If it ever snows or gets to be a winter mess, I just drive my SUV (which I rarely drive anymore).
The S-Lites have a decent amount of curb rash and the tires have 17k on them. Some good tread left, but nothing anyone would drool over.
Any thoughts? Is there a market for obviously used and unevenly matched wheels & tires?
Thanks for your help!

You can put it in the market place and try sell it as is.
I don't think you will get a lot out of it but you'll be able to sell it, at the right price.
I saw price ranged from $450 - $600 for decent sets. Your might have to be cheaper.
