I wanted to pass and mind my business, but then, my conscience won't allow me; since I've gained a lot here. Please folks, don't buy any tyre with the dot inscribed like in the quoted post. The dates have been altered by our people. Most times the tyres are expired. I learnt the hard way too, don't fall victim.

pls, stopping saying what you don't know or bad mouth someone else's biz because of a bitter experience you had. Heavens know I will never falsify manufacture date on a tyre cos I know where to look for them. Tokunbor tyres selection is a skill on its own, if you don't know you don't know

Hello, Mr. Emmancecute. I'm sorry, I don't know there are exceptions to the DOT. I will never intend to bad mouth your business. Perhaps, folks should always check the DOT of the tyre online to compare the style of the DOT inscription of the manufacturer. I learnt a new thing. I thank Almighty God that spared my life due to expired repackaged new Goodyear tyres I bought on Toyin Street, Ikeja.

There are Tips to buying used tyres and I will be sharing them here based on my experience.
Re: Which Is The Best Budget Tyre Currently Pls? by emmancecute(m): 1:03am On May 13, 2021
Tips to buying used tyres
Grade: Based on my experience, there are about 3 grades of used tyres.
grade A: This are sparingly used brand new tyres that were removed because of seasonal change i.e winter to summer in countries where such law applies or as a result of periodic changes by the user. Some users might decide to changes their tyres within 8 months,12 months or 18 months regardless of the state of the tyres or the mileage they ran with it. Tyres in this category always come with full thread marks and most times in very healthy state but due diligence still as to be observed when purchasing this types of tyres. You need to check if there are no damage/weakness to any part of the tyres especially to the side wall hence why it was removed prematurely. This sets of tyres are usually kept separately and sold at higher prices compared to other grades.
grade B: Most used tyres falls within this category and you'll find a handfull of them in different sizes. They are tyres that as been used fairly/considerably well by owners and as been considered a loyal servant and is thus worthy of replacement. Most don't come in full thread marks like their grade A counterparts but with little or no damages. They will do the job too but not as much as the grade A.
grade C(aka Malamala): This ones are usually categorised as condemned/damaged tyres due to one damage or the other. Most local vulcanizers usually go for this categories cos of their cheap prices and because they believe the damages can be fixed by them.
I will continue later.

It is always best to go for summer tokunbor tyres as against winter ones. The summer tyres or 'straight line' as coined from the street because of it mostly straight lined thread pattern conforms more with our weather hence offers more usage period. It is becoming more difficult in getting summer tyres in some specific sizes in most tokunbor tyres warehouses in Lagos as most of them are bought are taken to the north, Abuja especially.

Re: Which Is The Best Budget Tyre Currently Pls? by emmancecute(m): 8:37pm On May 24, 2021
Always check for signs of weakness when buying used tyres. Tyre burst are always characterised by tyre weaknesses, Over inflation and over aged tyres.
As tyres age they could become weak. If you notice little cracks in between threadings and sidewalls, or bulgings this is an obvious indication that your tyre is weak. This can be avoided by purchasing recently manufatured tyres and inspecting properly.
