Why Would Anyone Buy Used Tires?

Cheap Fun I have often wondered why in the world anyone would go to all the trouble of purchasing and installing a tire when they know it has already been used. Sure, maybe you saved a few bucks but you’ll probably be replacing those tires in the very near future, right? And then you’ll pay for balancing and installing all over again…
And then I had to replace the tires on my little Kia Rio hatchback and walked away with four nice Yokohama tires with a 60,000 mile warranty and paid over $600. Ouch! OK, so maybe I should check out this whole used tires thing again…
As it turns out, there are actually quite a few places you can find on the internet where you can order used tires. At first this seemed to me like it would kill all of your cost savings, mainly from the shipping charges. But if you find someone in your area, or if you are ordering the tires for a fleet or for something besides using them on a vehicle it probably starts to make more financial sense. And then I started thinking about the used tires business itself. How could anyone make money at a business like that? I just assumed that used tires were something you bought at some small mom and pop type of business. Maybe you are in college and are broke, maybe you run a landscaping business and drive all over town mowing lawns and don’t really care about shiny new tires. Those customers are going to look for a local business. But several businesses are selling used tires online, so I decided to dig into this issue a little closer, just out of curiosity.
Of course some of the top results when you search in Google are obviously creating their web site just to get clicks on their Google Ads. There’s nothing wrong with that per se, but many sites like this are referred to as ‘MFA’ (Made For Adsense). The problem with them is that they contain articles which are outsourced to some ‘third world’ country and they end up providing a lot of words without really providing much information. UsedTiresDealers.com is one of those kinds of sites. I even found a site which purports to sell used tires, but I’ll be damned if you can actually get to their product page or order form. And they don’t even have ads! But then there are the sites actually selling tires, and I really like Howard Levy’s site.
UsedTires.com – pretty much the best website name for the product. Looks like he’s been in the business for almost thirty years, and online since 1997. Now this guy is an early adopter! And it also appears that he sells most of his used tires wholesale. This makes sense to me. And it seems that a lot of these tires are purchased for something called ‘Tire Derived Fuel’ which I don’t understand but it seems to have something to do with recycling and gives me something else to look up and maybe write about!
