So would you guys swap the 06 Rays for some Volk Le37s or Nismo LMGT4s?

Not sure if someone would actually be willing to trade their LE37s for the OEM rays, but if I did do such a trade, how should it work money wise if I go with 19" LE37s. Not sure how much the rays are worth.

For some reason, OEM wheels are seldom in demand. What you might consider is a eBay auction. 350Z drivers will buy Rays wheels. I have seen 4 wheels sell for $1,000. Then use the cash to buy what you want.

Maybe someone will trade my 17 inch OEM wheels for 18 inch. After all, mine are lighter.

Yes, a trade is unlikely, but I did note that I'd consider selling the rays for something aftermarket. I was more looking for insight and opinions in terms of looks and the value of the rays.

The 18" OEMs sell for around $1200-1400 with tires so the rays could command a decent price. I've seen some LE37s sell in the low $2000s so a trade wouldn't be that out of the scenario if someone was looking for cash in hand along with lighter wheels and more performance.

The only problem with selling them outright is that I wouldn't have any wheels to put on in the interim while I shop around.

In the end, I'll probably end up keeping the rays, but I've always been fond of the LE37s and also would like 19s all around.

my opinion, there are enough idiots out there who will buy stock wheels to replace their stock wheels. you guaranteed there is a moron out there who will pay $1000 to $1500 for your stockers on ebay, it happens everyday. I say, get your LE's that you want and ebay the stockers once you have them off.
