I know it's the wrong time of year, but I really need the money. I'm a single part-time parent, had to get rid of my truck for something more practical.

I've posted these on Craigslist. Was thinking of posting some flyers around town. Anyone have any suggestions? Much appreciated!

You might try reposting them. It might take a month or so. You can always lower the price a little also. A picture of all of them together helps also. I am not an expert though. The nickel adds is another source.

No offense but its probably just the $$ tag. I'm not saying they aren't worth it but they are "used" (whether 30K miles or 2K miles). How much is it worth to someone to pay extra for brand new... Also many people don't have $1300 cash to spend, so they go to Schwabs or somewhere else and buy on credit :hoboy: :hoboy:
I'm not trying to discourage you but thats my :twocents:

Like the others said I would stick with Craigslist, and the Nickel. Maybe you already do this but when posting on Craigslist, post to multiple citys and include the exact tire size in the ad so when people search it will pop up. Another site to consider is Oregon Live or the Portland Tribune or some other local paper classifieds, even some of the local news stations KGW etc, offer a classified section that you can post in, and most are free.
GOOD LUCK!:wave:

The rims look dirty and the tires could use some protectant. They might be in perfect shape but you couldn't tell by the picture.

I sell parts like these on a daily basis. Pictures really do sell the item. Clean them up as best you can, and tire shine doesn't hurt. Not so much that you get glare from the flash, but enough to look nice.

Like mr bones said, post to multiple cities, it never hurts. Also, post for a week, then put a new post back up.
