They look chewed up. I'd go with new unless you can find a used set in better condition.

if your planning on driving them hard then i wouldn't get it, tires have heat cycles and tires can heat cycle out within a couple of track days, afterward their grip properties are not the same

for daily commuting i don't see why not though
