yoeddynz Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 Can anyone help? Secondhand tyres in above size needed for my Viva. The second hand Toyos I had fitted are wearing out quick plus one front one was stuffed form too much positive camber. I have rotated them but it wont last long on the back..... I'm hoping someone might have something to suit. Just two tyres needed for now. I have tried U save tyres in Nelson but he wants damn near new tyre prices for second hands!... cheers all.

Beaver Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 I found them very had to find in second hand (and when I did, they were nearly the price of new ones as you say). Managed to get new toyo proxes from tonys tyres for $110 each Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoeddynz Posted December 22, 2011 Author Share Posted December 22, 2011 $110 for Toyos. I ring em!. How long ago was that Andrew? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beaver Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 when I got tyres for the avenger, so earlier this year. mind you they should have been $160 a tyre but the other ones they ordered me were fucked so he gave me toyos for the same price lol. they do nankangs or similar for around 110 a tyre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoeddynz Posted December 22, 2011 Author Share Posted December 22, 2011 Oh- well anyway I just sent them a price request saying I had a mate who got toyos for 110 each. Interesting to see what reply I get.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bling Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 Cheapest pricing is ALWAYS by requesting a price from their site. Which I gather you have done. Just pointing out for others as even with enthusiastic bargaining in store, online still wins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4AG_Addict Posted December 26, 2011 Share Posted December 26, 2011 I was looking for some 2nd hand recently, dude at Roadrubber Tyres in CHCH had some, but wanted $100 each. So thought I was better off buying new. Also Ascot Auto in CHCH had a pair, think he said $80 each, but they were shitty old Hankooks or something, ask for Dean if you call.

yoeddynz Posted December 26, 2011 Author Share Posted December 26, 2011 Sweet- cheers. I'll try a local friend here as I think he might have something but yeah- why pay almost new prices for shitty second hand. There must be a fair few out there still running this size eh? Maybe not.

CUL8R Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 Pah, I can do new ones for those prices! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoeddynz Posted December 30, 2011 Author Share Posted December 30, 2011 Chris- could you PM or text me some prices of what you can get. You told me ages ago but I'm sure things change or maybe theres some deals to be had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sholdowa Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 Hi Chris, when not extremely poor, I'll be after a set of something decent. OE is 185-70x13, so 185/60 04 maybe 205/60?? No hurry though but the current ones are dated 1997... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
