I would bin them. I wouldn't want to do a track day with flat spotted tyres. They are just duel sport/touring type tyres anyway. If they had been ultra stickies then someone may have been interested.

If they have 3 and 4 mm of thread,, why would you change them. All tyres flatten off in the centres.
