seaviewz Posted June 28, 2013 Report Share Posted June 28, 2013 Is there a company that sells part worn tyres on Shetland? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aidank Posted June 28, 2013 Report Share Posted June 28, 2013 not really but bet you'd find some if you went to a tyre centre and hocked? alot of tyres at the scrapyard too which they may sell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seaviewz Posted June 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 Cheers, incidently Ive found a company south that will deliver part worns for £20 shipping ( for x 4 tyres!) Thought Id try locally first will give your ideas a go. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulb Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 assuming this is spam. however thats such a bad idea. get new you will be safer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aidank Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 Great in theory Paulb but not everyone can afford new tyres! For this reason i wouldnt go down this road either but I would suggest carefully selected used tyres 'may' be safer than the bald illegal ones he may want to replace...

paulb Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 true. but i think thi may just be a spammer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seaviewz Posted June 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 true. but i think thi may just be a spammer. Excuse me? I am not a spammer. I am trying to find some cheap tyres for my car and was recommended to ask on shetlink. Unfortunatley I cannot afford 4 brand new tyres hence the question.

owre-weel Posted June 30, 2013 Report Share Posted June 30, 2013 true. but i think thi may just be a spammer. Perhaps you should not be so quick to jump to conclusions, most spammers on here spam in the first post. I have bought many tyres off people advertising on Shetlink, a good check prior to purchase will show up any signs of concern. Not everyone can afford a new set of tyres.

My post was to try and buy local first ! which I prefer to do. Im well aware part worns are not ideal, but unfortunatley needs must this time round for X4 tyres.
