Hi All,

So I just picked up a 2011 Ibis Prestige S-line with 2500 miles for my fiance. We had already decided we were going aftermarket (20x9 VMR 710's). So my question is what to do with the 20" s-lines?

Do I sell the rim and tire together and get Hankook V12's?

Should I sell just the rims and put the Michelans on the VMR's?

Also, what is the going rate for these in mint condition with less than 3k miles on them (ebay price & forum member discount price)

Thanks in advance!!

Are they the standard silver s-line's or the Titanium grey S-Line plus wheels?

My bad, I should have clarified.. They are the silver s-lines.

What is drawing you to the Hankooks instead of keeping the Michelins?

I would keep the Michelins myself. I don't think you'll have any problems finding a home for the wheels regardless of what you decide to do with the tires. You can start by advertising for free in the AW classifieds forum. I can't say what they're worth with any degree of certainty, but good replicas from Hartmann are $345 each. If your OEM's are pristine I would think they'd be worth at least that. Or you can keep them for trade-in time. I'm not sure what Audi's policy is on certifying a pre-owned trade with non-OEM parts. If they can't/won't certify it, they're not going to offer you as much.

I don't have a clue what the S line rims go for used, but I can tell you they are over $900 each new. My previous Q5 had the 19" rims, and I was thinking of upgrading to the 20s until I heard the price.

Just paid $1600 for a brand new set with tires. Felt like it was a fair price.

Thanks guys!!

I have nothing against the Michelins. I would just keep them, but I thought I read on here that they were expensive tires. So if it would be in my best interest to sell those and get new (cheaper) tires that I still like, then I would do that. If I'm not going to get much value in the Michelins then I'll just put them on the VMR's and list the wheels seperately.

May I ask where you picked up a brand new set with tires because I believe they are asking about $3,200 at the dealer last time I checked. I have a wheel and tire protection plan and as long as I have an audi rim they have to replace the tire and/or rim if either fails so I do not want aftermarket.
