Used Tyres Informations: All tyres offered for sale by Huan Poh. are USED. (Unless otherwise stated) Our goal is to provide high quality used tyres. QUALITY ASSURANCE and CUSTOMER SATISFACTION We guarantee that our tyres - thousands of used tyres in stock - meet our high standards. Though we do not know the history and usage conditions of our tyres, our quality assurance policy includes repeat tests. When a tyre is added to inventory, we check for apparent damage, measure the tread, and test air pressure to ensure good quality. Some of our tyres have been satisfactorily repaired (safe spots only) by specially trained technicians using industry-approved methods. When a tyre is sold, our technicians repeat air tests before tyres are packaged for shipping or installed on-site. By monitoring the amount of air pressure over time, we can ensure there are no slow leaks or bubbles. Every single tyre is tested with air before it leaves our warehouse. The reputation and success of our business is built on selling quality products and serving our customers.

Why check your tyres?

Tyre pressure - Safety

Tyre pressure is a critical element of vehicle safety. Under-inflated tyres can cause overheating, which can result in tyre failure. Motorists should check their tyre pressures regularly in order to stay safe on the roads.

Tyre pressure - Costs

Under-inflated tyres can lead to increases in fuel consumption and reduce the longevity of tyres, requiring them to be replaced more often. Running tyres that are under-inflated by 20 percent of the recommended tyre pressure level can reduce the tyre’s life by up to 30 percent.

Tyre pressure - When to check tyre pressure

Tyre pressures should be checked regularly. Motorists should always check tyre pressures when tyres are cold, as the temperature of the air inside the tyre increases rapidly when driving.

Tyre pressure - Finding information on correct tyre pressures for your car

To check the recommended tyre pressure level for your vehicle, refer to the manufacturer’s information, which can be found in the vehicle manual or on a label or plate inside the driver's door, inside the glove box or inside the flap to the fuel filler cap. Alternatively, motorists can find the information at a petrol station air cistern or at a tyre centre.

Tyre pressure - Tools

A tyre pressure gauge should be used to check tyre pressures. These can be purchased from any car accessories retailer and come in three forms: pencil shape, analogue dial or digital display. Motorists are advised to select a model showing both BAR and Psi.

Tyre wear - Safety

Under-inflated tyres are one of the main causes of premature tyre wear. This can be made worse by over-loading and excess cornering speed. Taking better care of tyres improves vehicle handling, fuel economy and safety.

The general condition of tyres is influenced by a number of different factors, including under-inflation or over-inflation, misalignment of wheels or incorrect camber, all of which cause excess wear.

Tyre wear - Tyre damage

Damaged tyres should be replaced immediately. Typical damage could be a bulge in the tyre sidewall, often caused by impact with the curb, cuts and tears, caused by sharp objects, flat spots, caused by emergency stops, tyre cracking due to age or weather conditions and embedded objects.
