Anyone sold Run Flats?

Just curious to see if there is actually a market out there for our stock run flats? Whats everyones thoughts/experiences. The reason I ask is because I would like to sell mine as soon as I get my car and get non run flats.

I know some people are just purchasing non run flats after their run flats are worn since they paid for them in the car. However, if there is a market for these tires, with only 100 miles on them I would sell them. Some what of a not so even trade off I guess. I just dont want these stock tires to sit in my mothers garage (thats where I put all my crap since I only have a condo with no storage).

Thanks for the thoughts and comments

Mine are still for sale. I didn't think anyone would need them right away. It could be many months before someone is interested but there are plenty of people who will want to replace a set of OE tires for a bargain. OE runflats also have a way of going on backorder for inordinate amounts of time making them very hard to get.

Mine are bagged, stored and waiting.

I just bought two used Brigstone RE050A run flats with 80% tread remaining off e-bay for $225 shipped. I am selling/trading in my Z4 and put the OEM wheels and tires back on. The rear tires were close to the wear bars so I found two RE050A’s on e-bay. Each tire had a patch. You should be able to get $300 plus shipping for newer tires with no patches.
