Fair price for "New" RFTs ?

I've made a decision to replace my RFTs with normal tires as soon as I get the car - the tires will have under 100 miles on them. What would be a fair asking price? My car is a 2011 550i with M Sport Package so fronts and rears are different sizes. I don't know what brand of tires it will have - but regardless they will be replaced and sold.

The reason I've reached this decision as opposed to waiting until one fails and needs to be replaced is because I'm going on a 1,500 mi road trip around Christmas time and I cannot afford (mentally not monetarily) to be stranded for two days and not get to my destination on time just because I hit a pothole. It's really a shame that one cannot trust a brand new $76,000 car (MSRP on mine) for a simple 1,500 mile round trip. Shame on you BMW for making such a stupid choice.
