swap for 2011 WRX rims ??
 
I have a chance to do a wheel and tire swap with someone who has 2011 WRX wheels (painted black) OEM Dunlops w/7k of wear. Mine have 2700 miles on the lovely Michelins.

I'm looking for opinions on whether I should try to get any cash on the deal or just swap even up.

Here's what they will look like

Having seen @GrimmSpeed's car in person, the wheels look fantastic on the car. The stock Dunlop's they come with though should be replaced. You should ask for a little bit of money to do the swap since in my opinion the Michelin's are the better tire with less miles on them.

If the person you're swapping with is okay doing this, you should offer up those Dunlop's for free as a part of the deal for you to get paid.

Depends on whats left on the tires.

You should be giving him some cash.

I've seen those '11 WRX rims on several different Suby models years and they look really good. I'd go for it!

17x8...go for it. And they look really good on the BRZ.
