Help with new wheels

Option 1: OEM chrome exchange off ebay.

Pros: They are new. They are OEM Nissan merchandise. Don't have to buy new tires. Around $500 isn't bad at all.

Cons: $200 shipping (2 ways due to the exchange). I am losing my stock silver wheels that I could possibly sell for a few bucks.

Option 2: Used chrome 20 inch wheels. A local tire/wheel shop has 4 sets of used 20's with 6x5.5 bolt pattern. Have not seen them yet (30-40 min drive), but the owner says they are in "like brand new" condition. I have bought both new and used wheels from him before with no complaints.

Pros: $500 for each set isn't bad (one set is $600). I like the look of 20's. He may give me some $$ for my stock wheels/tires (tires have 2500 miles on them).

Cons: Wheels are used (not a big deal to me). Have to buy new tire$$$. (Tirerack has Goodyear 305/50/20 for $130 a piece.)


What would you do? How much should I expect to get for my LE 18inch wheels with practically new tires on them??

I like the LE rims personally, but the 20's (if you like the rim design and the backspacing is proper) with some yokohama avs tires would look mean.
If i were you i would just buy a new set of tires, something more aggresive.

I can't decide! I do know that I am looking for CHROME though.

Why the hell didn't Nissan put chrome wheels on this truck......even as an OPTION!!???

Doesn't make sense, to me anyway......with all the other chrome on the truck, the silver painted wheels look out of place....stupid even. Just my opinion.
