Default 18s off my 2004 are like a bad penny

I've got these 18s off my 2004 that I cannot get rid of. I've put them on craigslist, for 350$ I think, and no hits...tried to trade them for different parts and nothing....besides scrapping them, I don't know what to do with them. They're too expensive to put good AT/MT tires on (I actually bought 5 16s with tires for less than what it would cost to put tires on them), and they're just taking up room in my garage. Am I just asking too much for them? Anyone sold this style recently have an asking price suggestion?

You ARE asking too much.

I'll give you $150 for them, where are you located?

What shape are they in? I would be only interested in them if they were near mint. I've had corrosion issues with the rim surface that contacts the tire bead. I could potentially have these on hand for future replacements.

They are definitely in pretty good condition so i hate to just ask 150 for them. They really just look like a set of wheels with 75k miles on them. No curb rash or anything like that. I've never off roaded with them so no rock marks or gashes that I can remember. I'm in knoxville tn

I just sold mine last week, after months of putting them on Craigslist. I ended up getting $250, for all 5 in great condition.

You can also sell them individually on eBay. Hurricans seem to be one of the most common Discovery wheels. I would list them in a Good till cancel auction and enable the Best offer option. You will sell them. It took me 3 months to sell my HSE Comit 18's wheels, but somone out there needs them.

I think you answered your own question, didnt you?
try $50.ea, how much would you pay for a used wheel?
