What to look for in part worn cheap tyres

Buying part worn cheap tyres Compared to buying a new set of tyres, part worn tyres require a more intensive and thorough checking. When buying such tyres, check for bulges or bumps. Also, make sure to have them fully inflated before they get fitted in your car. Avoid buying ones that appear worn and old. Visually inspect the insides of a tire for signs of repair such as patches or plugs. As much as possible only buy tyres that have not been repaired. Other discouraging signs are cracks on the walls of tyres. Small and fine lines on the sidewall of a tyre are fine but, gaping cracks are considered red flags. Also, ask the retailer or shop owner if the tyre you are considering on buying is a snow tyre. If it's not always snowing in your area, it is best to avoid second hand snow tyres as you would end up paying more for gas. In addition, they also don't fare well in the handling department. Look for all season tyres or ones that are appropriate for the climate in your area.
