Did you want to make an offer? I have 0 comparables outside of the dealership.
Surely they misquoted you for the set? In reality I’m not 1000% committed to needing a second set of rims so my price is probably no more than 200 each shipped. Probably not fair to you to even go there. I will say that at even $400 each I would be amazed if someone was interested. But I’ve been proven wrong before.

$200?? The wheels alone are over $700 each new. Add tires, tpms, tax, mount and balance... Come on guys 😂... I'll just keep em at $800-1600/set. I may be a little ambitious, but a reman wheel is $600 on ebay and an oem 255 40 21 eagle f1 ev tire or any comparable is around 300-400/each. Then add tpms, mount them, taxes... These are not your stereotypical EV hub caps painted to look like wheels. You're not going to find these anywhere for $200.

I did, $200 shipped. Lol. Bottom line is, demand dictates prices and these rims are exceptionally overweight and have poor aero (arguably that’s not a big GT consideration but still affects broad EV6 demand). In my subjective opinion they just aren’t that pretty and have zero other gains over other options. Kia knows they have a captive market and probably will only sell them for insurance repairs or for those two people (in the world) who absolutely must have the OEM look and most likely have a serious case of OCD. I just don’t know how many people are out there. If you get $400+ great! I’m truly happy for you. Using Kia’s dealer price really doesn’t change anything though. I can buy better looking forged rims of good quality for less. Likewise the tires probably apppeal to very very few people which is why they are stored under my house as a backup set. Last time I tried. I couldn’t even give away my Outback OEM take off rubber, just no one was interested and there are a LOT of Outbacks in the PNW. Go figure. In this case especially, I’d say you might better off saving the shipping weight and ditching the rubber and trying for a lower price on the rims+tpms. But, you do you. Try eBay try whatever. Most of the time it’s free if you don’t sell.

Whole lotta words to say you're just wasting people's time low balling them. Be like me offering you $10k for your ev6. Who cares what retail is, it's what I want to pay for it. Not even realistic or in the ball park. If you weren't really serious stop cluttering up the thread. Appreciate the engagement though, it boosts search results.

I’ll clutter if I want to, lol. It’s either that or go deal with the projects I need to finish. This is far more fun. You’ll note, I’ve only tried to help you sell them. I don’t really want them and was fairly clear about that. It’s just your absurd asking price had me questioning your dealer, I wasn’t questioning you.

And it’s only a low-ball offer if you sell them for more. Otherwise it’s just called “market”.

If this is "help" I dont need your help 🤣. I've sold plenty of wheels over the last couple decades and these will sell too and for a lot more than $800. Thank you again though for making this the #3 search result on google for EV6 gt wheels. We're almost to #1!

Well, from a purist standpoint, “we” are number three and you still haven’t sold them so it seems you need all the help you can get.
