It is not clear to many drivers why old but still serviceable tires are lying around in garages. Of course, the question arises of selling unnecessary tires, because now not a cent is superfluous. About how much you can earn from used “rubber” and how to sell it, the portal “AvtoVzglyad” says.
Used rubber is a completely liquid product, so we do not recommend throwing it away or destroying it immediately. Here we immediately make a reservation that the law forbids just throwing old tires in the trash can at the entrance. They contain many harmful substances that affect the environment. And if the windshield wipers find old wheels when loading the tank into the garbage truck, then the management company has to dispose of them at its own expense. Who will like it? Therefore, the company can use cameras to find the intruder and file a complaint against him with the police. In accordance with art. 8.2 of the Code of Administrative Violations provides for a fine of 1,000 to 2,000 rubles.
Therefore, it is worth placing an advertisement on the Internet for the sale of old tires. They are willingly taken for 500-1000 rubles per wheel. The advantage for the buyer is that it is impossible to buy an old model in a store, so if you tear one wheel, then you have to buy at least two per axle. And that can be done at minimal cost. In addition, the old tire is also suitable for the “spare tire”.
Used tires for the same 2000 rubles are willingly taken by tire mechanics. So, the author of these lines sold fourteen-year-old Nokian tires, which had already begun to delaminate the top layer of the rubber compound. The artisans bought them saying, well, they say they’ll last another season.
And if you have tires that are less than 5 years old and with a profile height of more than 4 mm, it is quite possible to sell them for much more money. It all depends on the size and condition. That is, so that there are no holes, cuts and “shells” on the side walls. For example, the popular Dunlop size 205/55R16 can be sold for 12,000 rubles (4 tires). It turns out that it is more profitable not to delay the tire change, because then you can get more money and significantly reduce the cost of buying new tires.
