Default Won some tires!!! Advise Please.

I won some tires, and notice that they are bit expensive of tires. I dont race my z and dont need such expensive performance tire. So im trying to decide if i would be better off selling them and get something else with the cash, or just keeping them since i cant get retail price for them.

They are Dunlop Sp Sport 01
245/40/19
275/35/19
Dunlop SP Sport 01

I do relize the front is a 40 but thats what they come up with for the Z. I know it should be 35 but they dont make 245/35/19. Probly why they gave me a 40.

They go online for around $350 a piece. But i dont know what i could get for them, if anyone has some experience with this please tell me how much i can get and/or if i should just keep them.

Thank for the help.

You could get a good grand or more for those. And if you want to pocket some change, why dont you buy really cheap tires....I saw some Rotallas go for 300-400 for all four tires.

try your luck on the local market place of your regional forum. Why do you hang on to them and take your car to the track, you might enjoy it

If i sell them whats the least i should take. Obviously I wont get retail but dont want to rip myself off. I think i would be wasting them if i kept them i dont race the car they would be just used for daily driving, something i could get cheap tires for.

Sorry but I do not know what the tires are worth to you. What do you spend on tires? $600? Then you must get $600 plus for these tires to make it worth your while. Good luck.

Read BigRez. Good advice.
