Swapping out your worn-out tyres can be an expensive affair. A decent set of brand-new tyres could cost you anything between $500 to $800!

If you did not set the budget for this expense, an alternative would be to buy used car tyres instead.

But, as your tyres are the four main contact points between the road and your car, you should only buy used car tyres from trusted tyre workshops.
