What are these worth?

About a year ago I bought new tires for my 95', I think they are 285s for the rear and 255s for the front. They were for my stock wheels. About a month ago I bought a wheel and tire combo from AFS. So now I have an extra set of tires with only 2800 miles on them. They are BF Goodrich. They are Z rated and are the straight treads not directional. I bought these because they are supposed to have a long treadlife. I paid around $750 for them and have the receipt. They won't fit my new wheels. I have a guy that is interested in them but I thought I would ask you guys what they were worth before I told him how much I wanted for them.

You didn't mention which specific model the tires were, but I would think that $400-450 would be a good asking price for them.

I don't remember what specific model they are. My car is in the shop with them on it and I just received the new tires and wheels by UPS and they are sitting in my garage. Sorry but thanks for the reply I just wanted to make sure I was in the ball park I was also thinking around $400.

It would be unusual to sell a used tire for more than half the original cost....even if they were barely used.
That would put the value at about $350.
