Just doing some market evaluation. I'd appreciate everyone's input.
17" SSR Comps(silver in color) with 225/45/17 Michelin Pilot Sport Cups. Not the regular pilot sports, but yes they are the pilot sport cups. These tires are badass, excelent for both traction and handling. Wheels and tires are used, but in MINT condition. Tires have at least half tread. The wheels are not available new anymore. The tires are, they're $227 each from tire rack.
I have the opportunity to buy these, and I'm just wondering what you guys think they're worth? Also, if anyone else is interested in them, please let me know.

I don't think they are worth that much because they are r-compound, used r-compound. The heat cycles could mean they don't have the grip they should, there are better r-compound tires out there, in terms of both grip and wear, and there are also other wheels that are just as light. I'd say 1g tops if the wheels are clean and straight.
Just so you know, the SSR Comps (now being called its true JDM name Type C RS) will be available REAL soon from tire rack.
17x8 5-100 Et35 Ssr Typ C-rs 399.00
399.00 is that for all four?

per wheel, but well worth it. Very light and strong, unlike most wheels.

"The Cobalt firmly grabs you and whisks you along your way instantly. It does so with authority and poise, but while slipping relatively unnoticed through traffic, never being violent, or dare I say it, frightening. When you ask the SRT-4 to take you somewhere fast, it punches you in the face, throws you over its shoulder, and runs, screaming, so quickly that its tires can barely keep up."
Realize that those tires are race tires and not street tires. The will not last long on the street, and to get them to las any length of time on the track (track, not strip) or parking-lot you will need at least -2* camber.
Oh, and what would I be willing to pay... Half what the wheels cost new and another $50/tire + shipping. So my math comes out right along the same lines as Stowaway $1000 + shipping
