Orig. tires worth anything?

I have a set of original tires that came off the TTA at about 7k miles. Seem to be in vg condition with good tread left, any idea what they are worth?

Hard to say what they may bring. Tires of that age usually come with some level of dry rot and cracking even if they don't show. For that reason they are not very practical for a car that will be driven. If I had to throw a geuss I would say $300-$500. I'll be interested to hear what the others have to say. Let me know if you decide to sell.

At this point in their life they are ROCK HARD and somewhat dangerous to drive on. I have a well taken care of set from my TTA and they are scarey at best! However, they do look good when I show the car as far as authenticity is concerned. I'd be interested in buying your tires for my car if the price is right...let me know what you need out of them. I'd also be willing to buy just 2.

I would say between 100-200 depending upon the condition of the sholders and the sidewalls.
