What do you guys feel would be a fair price be for the four of them should I decide to sell ?

Problem is how old exactly? Tyre compounds start to go off with age fitted or not, now Michelin’s being one of the most expensive out there i would want cheap as there is no guarantee that it is new or if they are fakes, most people looking for Michelin know they’re expensive and willing to pay for them then why risk it? They’ll just buy new.

All tyres imported into this country legally have to comply with vigour’s testing to be sold here.

Compounds won’t change that much within Europe and all tyres bought here legally will be euro type approved.

Load indexes and speed rating rarely seem to worry anyone as long as the tyre is of a premium brand and I find this oddm as cheeper brands seem to cause a worry
