A Gm dealer has a used 07 for sale here in town. It has 20in black foose wheels on it. Anyone have any experience trying to trade with a dealer like that? I was going to offer my 18 pol alum, (brand new only 120 miles on them and the tires.) Wonder if they would trade. Or would that be a good deal for me to do if they would do it? The foose look very new too as the car only has 8k on it.

 

You're going to offer to trade them rims and tires for some off of a car they're trying to sell? I've never heard of that...

As a buyer, I'd want the 20inch rims on that car not 18's

 

im sure your right, thought there may be a chance they didnt realize what they were. The salesman sure as hell didnt know.

 

You never know until you try. I offered to switch trunks one time with a yellow one on the lot with spoiler delete and the manager said if I pay for the swap at their dealership, they will be ok with it. I was a bit lazy and since Im putting a GT500 original wing, I'll need the holes. But again, it never hurts to try.

 

I'm sure if you offer them a little incentive they will do it, check to see if the Fooses' have the TPS in them first.

 

You better have something worth $4000.00 to trade with them...I would know first hand.

 

Well I've done the same thing years ago, but now everything is all about the bottom line.....

 

I just don't think that the dealer is going to do that!!!

He will it will the wheels and tires that he has on it now...

But - Good Luck anyway...

Last week I approached a dealer that has an 07 with 20" Boyds, car has under 5K miles on it so the tires did look like new... he was willing to take them off, but he wanted $1800. and my polished bullits on trade....guess you have to determine what it would cost you to buy them retail and go from there...

 

I bought my 20' Foose Nitrous Crome for $1420 and spent about $700-$750 "with warranty" for tires. Sold my stock 17' Bullets for $500 cash. Think I did pretty good on the rims. BTW had them for over a year though.
