What To Look For When Buying Used Tires

Check The Quality Of Tire Tread

Although it is possible to buy used tires that are still good for a season or two, some are too far gone and risk the safety of all drivers on the roads. The less than obvious characteristic to look for requires a flashlight. Shine it in the grooves of the tread, if there are cracks, walk away. The tread block edges should also be straight and sharp, not showing wear, excess use and rounding.
