Default People with new shoes, Did you sell your old ones?

I am getting ready to buy new rims for my car. I was wondering what did everyone that bought new rims do, didyou guys sell your old ones or did you keep them.

I'm keeping the stockers for winter rims. Keeps the summer rims nice and saves the cost/time of mounting winter tires in the fall and switching to summers in the spring.

i'm trying to sell them, so i can get some new ones. i'm trying to beat blueherd's record of 3 sets, every 6-12 months change rims.

Default RE: People with new shoes, Did you sell your old ones?

Ask yourself 3 questions
1. Do you live in an area where it is a must for a winter specific tire?
2. Will you ever want to buy a track tire(drag radial)?
3. Will you sell/trade your car to a dealer when you want to get rid of it?

If you answer yes to any of those questions, then it will be better for your pockets to keep the stock wheels.
