Default Tires, what they worth?

Hi all and happy new year!

As above I have 4 Prestivo Sport 225/4517 XL tires that came on a set of winter wheels I bought but I'm not putting these back on the car in the summer so thinking about selling them on.

All 4 are pritty much like new and have only done a few thousand miles (I'll measure the exact depths if if decide to sell)

So what do people recon there worth?

Cheers for the info pal, I personally think there worth more than £40 a set as there almost new.

Trouble is it's not worth the hassle of selling them for nowt I might as well keep them as a spare, might try fleebay first with a reserve on maybe

Budget tyre + Scoob = problem.

Either dump them, (best idea) or sell them to some poor idiot who will probably end up killing himself and others.

Your choice.

I understand kind of where your coming from with them being budgets but surely there not that bad :O and as for the comment of "dumping them" I'm not about to dump 4 almost brand new tires, plus the fact they may fit other cars not only Scoobs!

Go wreck them on a track day, at least you get some fun out of them.
