How much these sell for?

Well if I'm getting new tires next step would be to sell mine!
My mom isn't very excited about this since I just got them... hah
They are BFGoodrich.. 235/75/15...
They have only been on my 4Runner for 7 months...
Only have been muddin' a few times...
Haven't been hard on them at all..
Mostly just going to school since I haven't had them in the summer...
I can get exactly how many mines they have been on when I call the people who put them on...
But with all this my question is what do you think I could get out of them?
I think I paid around $460 for them... here are some pics
And they might look kinda ruff but thats because I just took the pics now and all they need is a good wash and they'll look as good as new...
Thanks Ian

Take the cost of the tire and the original tread depth. You could probably even sneak into a tire place and take a measurement in 32nds. Then take your used tires and measure the depth in 32nds. Subtract the number to find out how much tread you've used. Check all four tires.

Then take the original cost of the tires, divided by the original tread depth reading. For example. 450/4 = 112.50. So you paid 112.50 for each tire. Now let's assume you had 15/32nds tread on the new tire. So take 112.50/15 = 7.50. So you paid $7.50 per 1/32 of tread depth. Now let's assume you used 5/32nds of tread. 5x7.50 = $37.50. So you used $37.50 of tread on that tire. Hence take 112.50 - 37.50 and you get $75. So your used tire is worth $75. $75x4 = $300.

This is assuming the tires are in good condition otherwise. Easy huh?

To answer your question, they are worth whatever someone is willing to pay.

Those are good tires, what are you thinking of replacing them with?.
