(4) blasted and powder coated wheels with polished stainless caps and (4)Michelin XWX reproduction tires with approximately 1500 miles on them. These are off of "The Professor" and are in very nice shape. I hesitate to say that they are perfect, but pretty close to it. Look closely at the pics for your opinion of quality. $1500 and rather not have to ship. Will probably be expensive and a PITA.

Man those tires are so expensive new.

Shipping actually isn't bad. Especially with tires on. You can cut circular boards of cardboard out and tape them on, also can clingwrap the wheels (if you wish) individually.

Or just drop in a box and cut down and tape up. Home depot has great 18x18x16" heavy duty boxes.

Fedex has good rates. Can prob ship anywhere in US for less than $100.

GLWS.
 
The core value of the wheels isn’t really relevant in this sale. If anyone thinks they are priced too high, take your free 14” slotted allows sitting in the back of your garage. Now price out the mounting, and balancing of michelin XWX tires at $350 a tire plus tax. Don’t forget to spend another $200-$400 to have your 14” wheels powder coated, or $150 - $200 a wheel to have them professionally restored.

The asking price is fair. With that said, your target audience is very narrow. You are targeting someone who wants the originality of a 14” wheel and is willing to pay a hefty price for a “proper” tire. I’m not suggesting that it is a good idea, but keep in mind that you can buy any old H rated 14” tire for $60.
