Ah, the psychology of a sale. I agree with most of the posters in that you best efforts to clean and shine the unit will help with the sale. If the battery is working and if the tires are serviceable I would leave them alone. If not, replace them.
It amazes me that people are quick to undercut your price. If you have researched the market value you should stick close to your guns. OR, you can do what most people do. Say you want $7K. Price it about $600 above that. If they grumble about the tires you can say you would be willing to knock off $500 to help pay for a new set.
Putting tires on a trialer might back fire on you too. Say you put on a new set of brand A tires and the purchaser would rather have brand B then this might be an investment that the purchaser would see as an advantage.
