Default Switching Tires

I just took delivery of a new, 2010 LS460L. It came with Bridgestone EL42's and the ride is very smooth and quiet. However, on my 2008 LS460L, I had installed Bridgestone "Serenity" tires and they were even quieter. So, with only 200 miles on the new car, I am going to switch the tires, but I don't know what to do with the EL42 take offs. Since I am not allowed to post them for sale in the classified section, because I don't post here often enough to have forged a relationship with anyone I could ask to "vouch" for me, I guess I'll just have to let them collect dust in my garage. It's too bad, because there are probably members out there who might like a great deal on a virtually brand new set of four P235/50 R18 97V tires. Any ideas as to where I might be able to sell these tires? I live in Orange County, CA. I would appreciate any input you folks might have.

Yeah, I guess I'll put them up on the Orange County Craigslist under Auto Parts. I only want $500.00 for the four, so I'm pretty sure they will sell. Thanks for the suggestion.

if they are the 18" ones.. which i am guessing they are.. they'll probably sell for $300 or less..

$500 if it's still showing the colored strips..

As I noted in my original post: P235/50 R18 97V, with only 200 miles on them.

Yes because clearly you can't post them for sale on here.
