herculesinwyoming Posted May 26, 2011 Report Share Posted May 26, 2011 why is it, there are thousands and thousands of cars running around on 15 in tires, but if you try to find some used 15 inch tires they are not to be found. Yet the tire shop has a full selection of brands for brand new 15 inch tires? I am starting to think they just recycle the used ones and force us to buy brand new tires. Or is just a problem for me out here in middle of nowhere wyoming Quote Link to comment

darin620 Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 I have had a hard time finding used 15s hear to. ended up with 185/60/15 in front and 185/65/15s for the back. Quote Link to comment
herculesinwyoming Posted May 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 i figure since i am in a boom town and we all make good money, they just recycle the old tires and force us to buy new, yet what i read online 15 ich tires are hard to find used Quote Link to comment
CoilOVerKid Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 Well you have to figure that most cars on the road are on 15's Quote Link to comment
Bleach Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 I've had a hard time finding them because they are so popular. The used tire shops actually charge more for small 14 and 15 inch tires than 'larger' ones for big cars and trucks. The Hondas, Toyotas, and Nissans that run 205/50-15 or 195/50- 15 or similar are what buy up all the tires. Quote Link to comment
