What do you think these are worth? -

So now that I've got the Porsche, I think I'm going to put the stock suspension and wheels back on the Audi. It sits too low as it is, is kind of a pain in the winter (snow packs up under it) and I'm always paranoid about bending/scratching one of the wheels. Since the Audi doesn't have to be my "everything" car now, I'll live with the stock smooth ride and run the Porsche or GTI if I feel the need to drive something sporty.

Any idea what the wheels are worth? They're Work VS-XX wheels, 18x8, with bolt pattern/offset to fit a 2007 A4 Quattro. Falken FK-452's all the way around (fronts have less than 1k on them, I wore out the insides on the last set due to too much camber in the front), rears have ~8-9k on 'em but still have plenty of tread left. They look like staggered offset rims, but the rears are actually a different center section than the fronts - they share the same correct offset as the factory wheels.

The passenger side front rim has a teeeeeny tiny bit of curb rash, apparently I *just* touched a curb with it at one point. It's on the *very* edge, you can't see it unless you're up close to the rim. Other than that, they're in great shape - I was always paranoid about them, and 99% of the miles I put on 'em were in Seattle where there are no potholes or rough roads like we have here.

They retail for ~$750/ea. new, before tires. What's a fair asking price for these rims with the tires?

Reasonably popular wheels, I'd probably start at 2500 and expect them to go for low 2000s or high teens.
