It always amazes me to see old tyres at swaps too.

Way out of date, hard as a rock and hairline cracks and about 2000 kms away from the wear markers and the idiots think they are 80 % tread and a new one is $150 so they ONLY WANT $100 (unfitted unbalanced illegal and useless )...... ha ha .

Over here in NSW, our tips (dumps) are "recycling " centres, whereby they re-sell junk .

Just like a big garage sale.

I reckon about 25 % of our swaps now are just this TIP JUNK brought along, nothing to do with car parts, just absolute rubbish.
