Fair price for my 300 mile Dunlop 185/55-16 tires?

Not 100% certain yet, but I am seriously thinking about buying a set of 205/50-16 Continental ExtremeContact DWS tires for my new 2012 Fit Sport, and would be selling my 185/55-16 Dunlop 7000 tires if I did this.

I see that Tirerack sells the Dunlop tire for $103 each ($412 for a set of four).

What do you think I should ask (and would get) for my 300 mile Dunlops if I decide to do this?

$200 for the set shipped, probably.

used tires lose value even if it's only 300miles...and the oe tires are overpriced for wat they are anyway.

^^This. Discount Tire only offered $80 trade in when I attempted to upgrade to different tires. For that little of a price, you are better driving on the stockers before trading up.

I'd say $100 for all four or $30-$40 each if sold individually would be a fair price. you will likely sell them more easily on here in pairs or individually for those who have just had a punctured tire as they are still hard to get (or expensive like from tirerack). The oem tires are lousy to begin with so don't expect much for a full set. Someone in a pinch is likely to pay $40 for a replacement however.
