Those appear to be dead/on the wear line... Obviously theres no camber wear but the middle of the tire looks dead to me

My guess is maybe 1k very carfully driven miles if that.

It doesn't really matter how many miles on them, but how they were driven. I wouldn't use those tires, they have barely any tread left.

I would only run on those if you HAD to. Change those out soon thereafter.

if you ar buying the rims from someone else, just tell them that you only want the rims and you will buy tires separately. those are very worn down. you can do the penny test, check this link, even if you are a girl, knowledge will help you from not getting ripped off http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tirete...jsp?techid=157
