I acquired two Blue Vredestein Fortezza SE tires with the purchase of some rims, and I have no real use for them (plus I really don’t like the color). They are virtually brand new. You can generally get them on sale for around $25 each. These are good all-around training/racing tires that are very well reviewed. Here’s the info from the manufacturer.

Otherwise, I’ll just hold them and train on them next year.
Here are photos of the actual tires. They were wrapped with duct tape, and there is a little residue. I’m confident that will come off during the first ride.
