Default New 2004 sc430 owner, what to do with 20inch wheels?

Would appreciate some advice on a wheel matter. My sc430 came with 20 inch MRR GT1 wheels. Im having the tires replaced with OEM 18 inch tires. The back tires are 275 and front are 235. I currently have them listed on eBay, facebook, Craigslist, and have called 25+ used tire shops in my area to see if they'd be interested in purchasing them. Previous owner bought them for ~$3400 new. I have them listed for $2000-2200. Any advice?

Post on the Club Lexus Marketplace too. Good luck. Someone will pick them up but times are getting tough for everyone.

I didn't realize there was a marketplace haha. Seems like I need to wait for admin approval on this account. Thanks Paul, I appreciate it.

Mrr wheels aren't worth that much, they are pretty much standard eBay China wheels. Realistically I think they will go for around $1200 to $1500. But it might be a hard sell cuz most 5x114 cars won't be able to run 20" along with 275 rears. Will have to be something rwd with wide fenders. The car looks clean with them though, and they look to be decent condition, I would just roll with them.

I was actually at the tire shop when I posted this so they've already been replaced. Im super satisfied, the ride is infinitely smoother and brakes are more responsive. I appreciate the comment, I'll be more responsive to "low ballers" then haha.
