second hand or new
Hi all
im after some tires to fit onto the standard alloys. budget is a big thing, as I have a set of oz 18 to go on later in the year.
so would you go for a set of cheap new tires
or
a second hand set of 6mm continetal tires?
both sets are around the same price of £130 for 4
thanks

personally I would go with the second hand set of 6mm continental tires rather than cheap new ones if your on a budget. Your better to have a set of part worn good tyres than a set of new cheap tyres.

I had the second hard tires fitted today.
the one with the least tread on it was 5mm, and the most a smidge over 6mm
all for £120 fitted
there were continental sport contact 5.
two of my old ones were splitting on the edge and between the tread, the other two were fine, so have still got hold of them incase I might need them in the future
