ZACHIE: Its all about choice and type of use, maybe the contributor only drives within town, even in developed countries theres an option for their use though its limited. I d rather get a reputable used brand like bridge-stone, than a cheap new chinese tyre that will explode when one drives above 80km/hr. 1 Like |

kaeforum: ceteris paribus, a new tyre with same specs as indicated on your car or even a higher spec WILL NOT burst. What may cause ruptures are lower tyre pressure, higher loads and speeds than indicated, over wear of tyres, sharp objects shredding an over pressurised tyres, use of lower spec tyres (temp, speed, wear traction and load specs) than recommended , sudden high speed impacts on hard objects such as kerbs, potholes etc, expired tyres and village people chasing you. |

ogawisdom: OGA WISDOM Pardon my ignorance. I shouldve known better to talk where wisdom is talking. I never knew of tire expiry date until your wise counsel brought it to my notice. Thanks. Please, can you help ship out TOKS used tires to Benin republic where i reside? Ode oshi, ordinary Benin republic will not accept used tire and this poor wretched soul is giving me bullcrap story.

And again, yes, you do not travel with your motor. If you do and value whatever remains of your miserable existence you will value it. The oyinbos that discarded of those tires, are they mad? No. They are not mad. It is you that is mad. Very mad. No transporter runs on TOKS tires anymore. Check them out, Why? Don`t they know of grade 1 toks anymore? They value their lives and the lives of their passengers. There is no safety in TOKS tires. Sink that into that wisdom deficient numbskull of yours. |

lots of drivers who need better tread on a car or truck might be looking at the viability of going with used tires, or they may be choosing between the options of getting a new or used set. Each choice has its own pros and cons: here are some of the advantages and disadvantages of buying used tires. Advantages Best pricing - Used tires come with much lower prices than a new set, even if the used set is in great condition. This leaves the driver free to pursue paying for extras like alignment and balancing that will make tires last even longer on the road. Waste not, want not - Buying used tires well is part of a greater plan for some drivers. Economical and thrifty drivers will often get good at inspecting used tires to make sure they get great deals that won't compromise their safety on the road. Buying used also helps cut down on waste; if everybody simply bought new, there would be a glut of perfectly good tires laying around. Disadvantages Uneven wear - If the previous owner of the vehicle was not conscientious about maintaining their tire sets, you may find some bad wearing conditions on used tires. Some of these can be evident, but others can be pretty hard to spot. Look for "scalloping" or wear in the inside or outside grooves of a tire to be sure it is in good condition. |

I have never said brand new tyres aint cool, they are coll but the fact is that we do not produce tyres and buying a new tyre might be a wrong investment depending on factors. We buy imported tyres and we might end up buying winter tyres that is brand new and we use it in a tropical environment like Nigeria. Secondly, tyres are produced with terrain condition in mind. This is called specification and in cars there is what is called tropicalization. The type of tyre that is used in Ontario might not be Suitable in Warri considering the difference in terrain. Yet they are NEW TYRES. Now this is my position. If you buy used tyre, try and know the country and region of manufacture and the last time I checked we import mostly from china. We drive Chinese tyres and my basic Geography tells me that china isn’t a tropical country so are their tyres Suitable for a tropical terrain like ours? You can answer it yourself. Used tyres come in various forms People who use winter tires, then sell car with only winter on them.. Or car is destroyed. Then don't need the other set. Car accidents and wrecker yards. Where tires are nearly new and replaced but the body damage or other maintenance is write off People who return tires within 30 days for whatever reason...People who buy used cars and want to change to different rims... I've bought used tyres before that still had nobbies on them. The guy at the shop said they were sometimes from people who bought new cars and didn't like the brand or style of tyres they came with, so they pulled them off and replaced them. Immediately. Like on the way home from the car yard. A word of advice for the kiddies or first time car owners: This is an area where proper vehicle selection can make a huge difference. The consequences of a tire failure on a small car are minimal. Big tippy SUVs can be catastrophic. Select small non-tippy vehicles. |

When people who buy "used items" want to argue...their argument is always the same regardless of the product they are defending. YOu'll often hear them say; Its better to buy a 1st-grade toks than a China New product . The koko be say; who is saying you should get a china new tyre? What stops you from getting a new tyre from a reputable company(pirelli,dunlop,firestone,etc)? The answer is Finance! Simple and short!! Moreover, I have seen families drive with new china tyres from lagos-onitsha and back and the tyre hasn't gone burst. Comparing a used item to a new item is crazy....This is why Nigeria is often referred to as a dumping ground for westerners.. |
