I need your opinion used wheels and tires - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I'm getting ready to paint my truck, have the wood bed out and taking out some small dents in body. But my main question is your opinion on the wheels. I will be installing new rims and tires, going with the American Racer Bajas and Kellys.
Are the original wheels and tires have any value to someone maybe wanting to do a daily or work truck?Rims are the original 6 lug 15s and are rust free ( good old Calif inland weather ) Hub caps( aluminum ) are good to fair two have some scratches and one has a slight dent.Stainless rings are good with a few nicks .Tires are 235 75 front and 30 9.50 rear. According to mileage estimate from PO I figure there is about 8000 plus miles on them.
Before I list them on parts board , what do you think there worth?

More on wheel opinion.
There are 4 wheels. I forgot to mention that.

You'd probably get around 90 bucks at the most. I got 4 stock 8 lug rims for my truck for around 40 bucks, with no hubcaps or trim rings, but they were on the rusty side with the paint chipping off.

So the tires don't really count?

If the tread is still good, you'd definetly get more for 'em.
