Also what is the treadwear grade of the tires you are looking at. The treadwear grade is a comparative rating based on the wear of a tire when tested carefully under controlled conditions. For example the useful tread on a tire graded 400 should last twice as long as a tire graded 200.
Miles mean next to nothing.
I suspect up to $25 a tire is fair for both the buyer and seller if the tires are in good condition.
Ouch, I hope I can get more than that.
You may,,, you have not listed the real time specs on the tires, so no information was provided that a EDUCATED buyer should pay more. Of course you might find an uneducated buyer.
I buy used tires often. The value is typically in an individual tire, or a set of four. I recently had a tire dealer refuse to mount a set of used snow tires I purchased because of the date they were manufactured. These are all factors for educated buyers.
