 Lots of folks consider used mud tires as something totally inferior, and not even worth the hassle. But if you know the rules, you can find real gems - not all used tires are worn out and useless. Many of them come from wrecked cars,  cars that were bartered,  or sometimes just thrown away by previous users because of lack of storage space. Keep your eyes open, and you might just find what you need – and save money for some other pieces of mud driving equipment!

Rule number one: 

Never buy tires that are 6 years old or more.  The material loses its properties after some years, and driving used mud tires that are older than 6 years may cause a blow-out. 

Rule number two: 

Always purchase from a respected dealer of used mud tires.  Specialists are able to determine the value of the used tire, and easily find any defects which would seriously lower its usability and safety. You can find such dealers on eBay, or search the forums for some companies that get lots of good reviews. 

Rule number three: 

Know your tire! Before going shopping, check out your car’s tire size and properties, to be sure that you are getting the right thing. If you can’t find the specifications, write down your car make and year, and the shop should assist you with choosing the right set of cheap mud tires.
