When to Choose Second Hand vs New Parts

While second hand parts offer great value, there are times when new parts might be more appropriate:

Choose second hand when:

• You need to replace a single tyre to match your existing set

• Your vehicle is older and you want to maintain it economically

• You need a temporary solution while saving for a full new set

• You’re preparing to sell your vehicle and want presentable parts

Consider new when:

• You’re replacing all four tyres on a newer vehicle

• You do extensive driving in challenging conditions

• You want the absolute latest technology

• Your vehicle is still under warranty with specific requirements
