Value of the 04 factory 18" wheels
I picked up a set of Lariat 18" 2004 wheels awhile back for $50 for all 4. Now I've come across 4 more 2004 18" lariat wheels with lugs and caps and 4 2004 18" Harley Davidson wheels with lugs and caps. I like the idea of having the lariat wheels incase i wad up a wheel in the future and cant replace it.
What are these wheels actually worth? What have you guys been paying for them when you find them?
Thanks

Dang so they are kinda spendy. This guy want 450 with junk tires, said they were is winter set. So they're probably middle grade, ive got pics but havent went to his house in person to see them. Wheel works in town quoted me $300 each to compeltely strip, polish, and re clear coat(rebuild them) including the paint in the spokes. Which is expensive but its alot of labor to do that.
If he comes around, i will hook you up with a spare if you still want one. The Harley ones are a better buy. Maybe they'll be my winter rims lol. If i can work on the prices i'll get both sets, there is probably a member here with a black ex that would like those harley rims lol
Thanks

If you're just looking to have replacements if you trash one of your current wheels, why not just get one of them spruced up and keep the rest on the side? That way you'll have a good looking spare should you need it.
The HD wheels seem to command a higher price than the Lariat's, but then again the sellers seem to think they're made of gold and plated in unobtanium. I think Mark got his for around $850 or so but I don't remember the exact price.

Old guy, those 18"s are off an '05 SD pickup and would need spacers to fit on our leaf sprung EXs. Only the four variants of the '04 SD rims are a direct swap without the spacers, H-D, KR, Lariat and SVT.

Our good friend @WE3ZS is the person I want to negotiate treaties for the Free Republic of MARKLAND. He paid $750 and the Michelin tires had less than 800 miles (smelled like new and still had the teats).

Secretary of State for Markland sounds like a pretty good retirement gig to me! Will I have access to the Maker's Mark stash?

I'm in! &
I have seen the '04 H-D rims listed with $1k asking prices, but I would never pay that much for them (without tires) even if they were perfect. I can see complete H-D rims with the special H-D only lug nuts and caps commanding slightly more than the other varieties of the '04 18"s, because of those nut's added value to '03+ rigs. The earlier EXs and pickups still had the coarse threaded lugs and the fine thread H-D nuts won't work on those rigs.
Local market offerings will also affect pricing a great deal as will supply and demand. There were more of the H-D rims sold as all '04 H-D trucks had them. In mid-year '04 the 18" became standard on the KR trucks with the 16" as an option. Also in mid-year '04 the Lariat trucks got the option to upgrade from the standard 16"s to the 18"s. And the very rare SVT rims were only available over the counter of Ford Motorsports parts, they were not offered on any trucks from the factory.
