I'm going to be swapping out my OEM wheels+runflats am hoping to sell them at some point. I'll need to swap my TPMS's to the new setup so the runflats will get unmounted. The quandary is, should I have the shop remount the runflats and sell the runflats+rims together, or keep them unmounted and sell the tires and rims separately? I can't imagine ever wanting runflats so I'm having a lot of trouble putting myself in a buyer's shoes.

The runflats have about 10K on them (about a Lincoln's forehead worth of tread left). The rims are 16" OEM rib spokes.

Thanks!

 

I'd vote to keep them dismounted. That way, you could sell the set mounted or dismounted depending on buyer preference. Mounted will probably reduce your appeal due to weight and shipping cost. As for me, I would not want run-flats worn or unworn.

 

I agree, I hate runflats. I also agree to keep them dismounted. With 900 miles on the car I had to replace one (didn't want to buy a whole new set). So I was in the market for just one or two. OP might find someone in similar straits.

I am looking to eventually getting a spare set of rims and keeping a winter and summer set.

 

Keep them off. After 10,000 miles the tires likely have no value anyway and mounting and balancing will probably be $100 down the drain. Plus, wouldn't the buyer want to have the TPMS anyway? Then they would have to demount, remount and rebalance.

 

1+ for leave them dismounted for maximum flexibility

Older MINIs do not need TPMS, and race wheels don't need it either
