WTB: Your old tires!

Hey, I'm a newb here. Rather than explain it all again, here is a link to my introduction thread.

Cliffnotes:
I'm a student at Wright State University
Making an electric vehicle to compete for efficiency in the Shell Eco-Marathon
I have Ninja 250 rims with old nasty tires


That said, I'd really love some less old, less nasty, but used and cheap tires. It'll help us to be "greener" to reuse someone else's trash, so I do NOT want new.
The rules require tread, but there isn't an exact amount. I don't care about chicken strips, but seeing that the car is not going to lean, I need a little bit of rubber in the middle. We do plan to pump the snot out of these, too. More pressure is less rolling resistance!

And, I'm in Ohio, so I can pay for shipping. Or if you're near, I can pick them up.

thanks so so much for any leads!

EDIT: We need 130/80-16 and 110/90-16.

Bah! Knew I'd forget something. 16's.

130/80-16 and 110/90-16. Better, because I'm probably getting that wrong, I'll just say they came off a '92 and '03.
