Best option to sell a set of 3? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Spacemane969 · 12-28-2017, 08:09 AM

I have 3 Hankook v12s, punctured the other. I've moved on to Michelins but I don't really know how I can get anything out of the hankooks. Would it make sense to just buy a new Hankook and sell as a set? Would be spending ~ $90 just to get maybe 150 for the set if that. Tread is fine only used for about 7k miles.

Would anyone be looking for just 2?

Deff not worth it to buy a new one to make it a set. What you can do is hope for someone else in your situation then you can have a set of 6 to sell. But in all likeliness just easier to throw a ridiculously cheap price on them and hope someone has the same tires and wants some spares for autox or what have you.

I feel that it can beneficial to sell something complete. Sometimes this means spending a little.

I put a used set of tires that cost me $175 on my stock FR-S wheels and then sold them for $600. Previous to this; I had just the wheels listed for $400 and received no offers.

Thanks for the inputs. I have heard that it's much easier to sell wheels and tires than just the tires alone.

Someone might buy 2 and you make a tire swing out of the third.
