I think you should concentrate on two things- the value of the rims only and the center caps only. Tire type, size(s) and wear are seldom exactly what a buyer or trader wants- especially with a rim combo. The center caps are also more a commodity that have a value on their own.

Nobody wants your tires with "about 2000" miles on them," because mileage is not relative to: wear; age or if you ever had the right air pressure or alignment with them. Used lug nuts also have a value of $1 each. As they are, I'd expect a typical value would be closer to $600 for the complete set.

Using this thread as an ad for the wheels would work better in the wheels/tires forums. But I'd just place an ad so this doesn't get locked.
