You might be able to get a set on Ebay for under $1000 but definitely look at:
Salvage? Side impact damage, need for refinishing/retrue etc
Missing TPMS
Curb Rash
If it's a pull off a wreck and a wheel has gotten banged up you want to get it refurbished and trued.
For example looking at one guy's auction on ebay right now, the set is like 7-800 shipped. Just rims. Two banged from side impact. Add 180 local to refurb each,45 for a set of 4 used TPMS, 50 each for a used tire, 20 per wheel for tire and tpms install and balance, and we're at 1300ish for a set that's ready to put on your car and run. Add at least 200 for new tires.
So in this circumstance you're just as well off getting them from local salvage, or dudes on Craigslist parting out, who will usually sell you wheel sets cash for 1K-1200 with a little bargaining. With tires and TPMS already on.
