Hey all. I'm an independent, selling used cars on the low-end, between 3-10k. One of my many challenges lately has been locating a good supplier for wholesale brand new tires. So far we've been rolling with the cheapo used tires from our local shop but I feel that for cars where I have a good margin, I'd like to have new sets on them. Any ideas?
I source most of my tires from ebay. I would avoid generic new tires and go with good quality name brand tires any day. The cheap Chinese tires wear out very quickly. For example, I just bought a matching set of Hankook 245/55r19 tires with 6/32" tread for $105 including shipping. I pay $15 per tire for mounting at a local tire shop.
Thanks for the tip - I just checked eBay tires and my eyes popped out of the sockets when I saw how low the prices are.
