Second-hand tyres

Ayrtonf7

Hey Lads,

Just wondering if any of you know where I can pick up a decent second-hand tyre ? I need it for my CB250 nighthawk. The size is 90/100 - 18. The one I have on it at the moment is a perilli city demon.

The reason why I dont wanna just buy a new one is because im currently reviving a CB500 for my next bike and kinda wanna put the money into that as opposed to my Cb250 (which will probably be garaged once I get the 500 going.

Had a look on there already, not much there in the form of tyres.

Have you tried a breakers?
Its an old size so likely not many tyres in that size around second hand and if they are available are probably ancient and maybe not roadworthy.
Oponeo have that size for 63 delivered brand new. How much is a secondhand one going to cost?

Thats what I was thinking as well. Its only 60-70 euros for a new one so i might as well just pay the extra for good quality!

Didnt realise the tyre size was that old tbh! Bikeworld told me they hadnt stocked on in nearly 8 years

Bestlane tyres on slaney road in the Dublin Industrial Estate do have a good selection of part worn tyres, they bring them in by the container load from Germany. Pop in to them and the lads will sort you out if they have the size you want, 25 euro fitted if you take your wheel off yourself, good bunch of lads.

That's perfect man cheers! I'll give them a bell today and hopefully call in tomorrow at some stage!

That's good value my local garage charges me €20 to just fit a tyre, and I take the wheel off myself.

Could get through to bestlane tyres over the phone ? Are they still open ?
