how do these tires look?

[(4)runnin'it]

like they are worth 100 dollars? 285/75/16

and the 4th one...

the only one im worried about is that bottom on in the first pic.

I say $75, these are really just meant to bridge the gap between sets of tires. Like so you can save up for a good set.

ya just dont drive in the rain with them

Considering you'll have to spend probably $60 to mount and balance them, I wouldn't pay $100 for tires that look like they only have a couple months left on them. I'd say $15/tire.

Yeap id say they are worth 100 bucks. check inside the tire to see how many flats they have had repaired. If any flats on them id start taking 10.00 off per flat fix

They don't look that bad to me. If it were me, Id call on these tires and offer $65 and probably hold firm at $85. If the fifth tire matched, I would probably pay asking price of $100.

The tires are worn a little, but probably have about 10,000-15,000 miles left in them. The wear looks even, so that's pretty good at least.

Look inside and see if any circles of rubber, say between a quarter and half dollar size. Also there should be some rubbing like somone ran a wire wheel inside the tire around where the plug is ( to scuff the rubber before gluing the plug on )

Or

see if any tar soaked string is sticking through the tire. This is an external type plug that is not used by shops much anymore.
