Default Old Discarded Tires Worth Anything?

A crew is clearing trees off a lot and they piled up some old tires. I was curious so I took a look and a few pictures. 2 out of the 10 or so looked interesting. One is a Dunlop GT Qualifier and has G70-14 markings. The other is from Rocket Racing Products and has Stage II, Pro Stock 60, and L60-14 markings.

I can email pictures if anyone wants to see them.

The tires have been outside for a long time but might be good for display pieces.

Your thoughts?

post photos here or send them to me and I will post. It depends on how they were stored whether they would be usable or not. [email protected]

7 pictures sent.

I'm guessing that these tires were just tossed on the side of the road years ago.

I'm using a nice old redline for my kids tire swing!

Garage art. Clean them up and put a vintage mag wheel in and hang in the garage.
