After you guys got aftermarket wheels.. did you keep the stock ones for backup or sell them? How much do the stock 18's usually sell for?

Its probably smart to keep them. I sold them because I needed the cash, but I ended up buying another set of stocks because I needed temp wheels.

If you don't have an extra set of wheels, it's best to keep them.

I sold my 18's for $450 with decent tires but some damage to the rims. If they are in good condition you can expect to get $500-$600.

Being in the northeast, i threw some blizzaks on my stock 17s and use them from Thanksgiving through April.
Like mentioned before, they are good for a spare set in the event of an emergency.

Keeping them will always outweigh selling them, IMO.

I sold mine, then bought some for back up, then sold those, now I need some because I'm going to sell my car soon...

Basically, hold on to them, it's worth more to keep them because you may never know when you will need them...

If you are planning to sell them to make up for some money that you spent on aftermarket wheels, just keep saving it will be worth it in the end...

How much they sell for greatly depends on the year. 06+ sell for more than 03-05.
