Yup, people practically can't give those away because they are the first thing to go on most FRS/BRZ. I picked up a set with nearly new tires dirt cheap too and threw them on the OBS because it was cheaper than new tires.

Back side probably not an issue, but that one that is curbed is pretty major and is probably why they haven't sold.

That's why I was thinking to sell them individually. Some people might like to pick up a spare.
