I say keep them! I still have my stock lobsters and tires in storage. Mainly because I dont think the amount of money you can sell them for is worth giving up a perfectly good set of tires/rims, and if I dont feel like buying new Nitto's when my tires need replacing, i can swap back to stocks until i splurge on good tires again.

If it is to much then let me know, I am not a good seller =P.
I would and will keep mines if I ever buy rims... but I don't think you will get that much for em especially on here. I've bought a pair of the older style 18" for 500 but the tires were not so good.

Keep the stockers. I got rid of mine on my last car and out of the blue I traded my car in with aftermarket rims which were worth more than the stockers. I couldn't get a set of stockers with tires fast enough.

I don't think anybody is gonna pay more than $800 for stock rims plus worn out tires. Used stock rims usually go for around $500

IMO don't ever sell your stock accessories when you're modding. Keep them just in case
