Value of OE 15" basketweaves...

[camaroguy]

I just bought some M-System II's and no longer need my OEM wheels. The problem is, I have some really awesome all season's on them that have like 4k miles on them.

Tires are Michellin Pilot Exalto A/S, on 15" Basketweaves. The wheels are in good shape, though I wouldn't say excellent. What do you guys think I could get for the set if I decided to sell??

I love the tires, and will probably go with them on the new wheels as well, but since they are different sizes I cannot just swap them.

Why Not Keep Them For When You Sell The Car? I Always Keep My Stock Wheels.

Not a bad idea. Pretty much they are worth about 2/3 of what the tires are new IMHO. That sucks, but 15" wheels aren't something people are generally looking for in sets of 4 unless they are selling a car and need to swap wheels out...

They make for awesome snow tire wheels. Plus I'm rockin 'em on my car as we speak.

How did you like the Exaltos? How were they in rain or ice or snow?

I am going to put new 15" tires on my car (daily commuter) in about two days. I am considering Exaltos or the new Michelin Primacy mx?? Not sure of exact name. Appreciate your thoughts.

Sold my excellent style 32 wheels-never put them on the car. Long story :)

word. keep em, you never know when you might be planning a cross country trip and you don't wanna mess up your Msystems. so you'd defiantly be slapping on those basketweaves.

I sold mine for $75 with three tires.

I went with them because they seem to be the best all around tire you can buy. I had a set on my previous e34 for about 20k miles and loved them. I have had them on this car for about 4k miles and still love them. Granted I don't deal with a lot of snow and ice, but the occasions I have had to, they are pretty good for not being actual snow tires. They are awesome in rain, which oddly enough we get a lot of here :)

Sold mine for $150 with bald michellins on craigslist. IMO they're worth more to keep around but i needed the cash.

[E34nication]

Not even worth selling... I gave mine away.

[camaroguy]

It really is more about the rubber than the wheels :)

15" Basket Weaves FTW... Until I raise the fund to get 17" Style 65s that is... so should be a solid 4 months from now, lol.

I sold mine for $75 with three tires.Did the buyer's car only have three wheels?! :D

It is more fun to burn them off.
