Default What are my Michelin tires worth?

I've got a set of Michelin Pilot Sport 265/35zr/18 tires that have less than 2,000 miles on them. What are they worth? I know new, they are around $250.00 per tire.

One thing people seldom take into consideration with tires is age. Many times as tires get older, they begin to dry out and that drastically hinders performance. Im not sure why people always buy used tires for so much. PERSONALLY, if I ever go to sell a used tire, I would ask about 50%-60% of the original cost if they're in good condition/newer. Ive seen some people literally sell used tires on here for more than they could be bought new for lol.

Yeah, I'll get some pictures taken and PM them to you. I've been meaning to list them in the classified section, but just haven't had time to take pics yet.

The date codes will be a must! If manufactured within the last two years, no reason why you can't get $125 each, provided no damage or excessive wear issues.
