I am very disappointed that your company did such a poor repair job on this tire. It would have been very useful if your company would have had the note about it possibly having had a repair in the description as opposed to the fine print. At this time I’m bothered by the fact the repair job was completely inadequate to where Costco Tire Center is unwilling to install the tire due to liability concerns.

Resolved: The 90 Day Guarantee is a Lie

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Updated by user Oct 08, 2018

After contacting the company 5 times, and them continuing to be difficult, they magically responded and refunded my money once I got my bank involved. Their policy is VERY CLEARLY stated on their website, so when they started telling me that their requests for more information and "evidence" they told me they were "following standard procedure", well if it's standard procedure, then why does it differ from your publicly stated procedure?

All in all, after wasting hours of time fighting with them, plus my additional expenses of having to have the bad tire removed and replaced after I had paid for it to be installed, then an additional trip to a shop to have a replacement tire (which I bought elsewhere) installed, I found their attitude and methods for "customer satisfaction" lacking and downright terrible.

However, in the end, I rec'd a refund, so I am marking this resolved. I will not do business with them again.

Original review Sep 08, 2018
I rec'd 2 tires, went to the shop, mounted and inflated to find that one was severely deformed, had another used tire installed to get it on the road. Went home contacted them. They start asking for written statements from the installer, pictures of the damage, etc before they will return and refund the tire.... the written guarantee on the website has NONE of this stipulated, simply tell them its damaged within 5 days of delivery, provide a description, and they will pay return shipping and provide the refund. This is a LIE. I had to turn to my bank and initiate a chargeback they were so uncooperative. Wont be doing any more business here.

Just received the last of 8 tires ordered in the last two years. First set of four snow tires came promptly in 5 days.

The next set of summer tires was ordered individually and came in 5-8 days. No problem with quality or description of product. I used a dial caliper to check actual tread depth against advertised tread.

No problem. Received good product at fair price.

Received a damaged new tire

Best Used Tires - Received a damaged new tire

Purchased 2 tires advertised as new and received one tire that not only had a puncture hole but the tread was separated at the place of the hole.

The company sent the damaged tire anyways marking with white chalk, the tread where the hole was located thus fully aware of damage. I did see the damage before I took the installer because it was covered by a large priority tires.com sticker which is apparently the new tire division of best used tires.

Best used tires issued a return shipping label for the tire and apologized for the inconvenience which means they sold me one tire where I wanted a pair.

Deceiving discription of product

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Bought tire that had 2 patches in it. They state tire may have been repaired. But don't say how many times. Contacted website and was told they could give me 20.00 dollars back if I wasn't satisfied. I told him he knew what he could do with the 20.00 dollars. He also stated repairs was plural. They try to misrepresent their product. so I guess now we have to watch for plural endings when making purchases. I never would have bought the tire if I would have known it had two patches in it. They should have to say how many times the tire has been repaired. They tread in the shady area to deceive people. They just don't bother to state the truth. They hide behind the spelling

Tires were not as described

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I purchased tires that bestusedtires.com described as new and the tires were not new. The customer service person did not provide any help beyond saying sorry.

I explained that to the customer service rep that it's important that the description that is provided is accurate. The servicewomen agreed but said that they could not do anything except return the tires. I spent 25 per tire installing the tires plus they thru out my old tires so i could not easly return the tires.

I was hoping that this company would provide a credit or some compensation as my installer said that the tires as used were not worth what i had paid. In other words bestusedtires riped me off

Damaged Tire

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
I had made several purchases from Best Used Tires previously without any problems. This year I purchased two sets of Bridgestone Tires for our vehicles in March and June for installation before winter. I made the purchase when I saw the brand and size I needed listed on Ebay. Both sets were mounted after the 90 day return had expired. The first set had metal pins in both tires that required repairs but are usable. The Drive Guard set had a repaired tire included in the package and when installed would not hold air. A new tire of the same size and brand had to be purchased locally and the repaired tire was trashed. I feel Best Used Ties quality control is not what I experience in the past and NEVER buy their tires without installing them within the 90 day return policy. I learn my lesson the had way.

Buyer Beware!

I bought four tires... the day they were installed, I had driven two blocks from the tire shop and had a flat with one. It had *** on the side. Three months to the day, a second one had a blow out going 70 on the interstate. I ended up having to buy 4 new tires that day since I have an all wheel drive car. When I contacted the company... their response, sorry you are out of the 90 day warranty... here's a 15% off coupon on your next purchase. FOR REAL... they think I'm *** enough to buy more inferior products from them. Hopefully people will read all of the comments here before they throw away good money for ***!

Bad Customer Service & Bad Tires

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

I ordered 2 tires from Best Used Tires stored them until I saw 2 more, it was past the 90 day return policy, I get that. I ordered them in good faith, that they were good quality.

The tires were made in 02 & 04, way past the 10 years manufacture date, where shops would mount tires. Then there was a broken bead on one of them. I went to 3 tire shops & none of them would mount those tires

Julio Lopez, did nothing to fix the problem, he didn't want to credit my account or send 2 tires to make it right. Then, he didn't even want to send the tires back to me. This is the WORST tire shop to do with.

I have ordered tires through them for years, a loyal customer & then Julio doesn't want to do anything! HORRIBLE

You returned an order from 8/2014 on 7/2016. Our return policy is 90 days.

Not 2 years. We offered to send the tires back at your cost.

You refused. Happy to help our customers when they are reasonable.

Two Tires with three plugs excessive ?

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
I order two tires that cost 115.00. After receiving them I noticed that one tire had two plugs in it and the other had one plug in it. I don’t know if people reading this will agree but…. I think three plugs total is very excessive! How would you feel riding on these tires? Best Used Tires disagree with me and only offer to accept a return. The problem is that it will cost 60.00 to ship back. This was not my mistake sending these tires in the first place and I should not have to pay for return. If you think I’m wrong, go ahead and buy from them.

Possibility of plugs are disclosed but your website states that they are tested before selling. And that is far from the case. I received 2 tires with plugs in which 1 gave out in less than 1 day of driving about 3-4 miles

Read the Terms of Sale prior to purchase. We disclose the possibility of a repair in each listing.

I guess 50% is the best they can do. I bought four tires, 2 of which were advertised as almost new. Both of those tires leaked, one was flat within an hour of being installed, the other had a pin hole in the side wall and was not repairable. "Air tested and inspected" is their claim "buyer beware" would be more accurate. They still owe me $50 for mounting and balancing of two junk tires. Stay clear of Best used tires

They sent me the wrong size tire- over 60 days later I discovered- too bad??

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
This company is a bunch of liars and crooks. Ordered 2 tires on Ebay and several days later only one tire shows up. The next day I get a call from a lady at the company saying one of the tires they had on Ebay turned out to be a bad tire. Sounds like the company has it together right? Wrong! They sent me a replacement tire that was the wrong size and it went right from the FedEx truck to my tire shop where they put it on, so I didn't notice. Now the car is pulling to one side. When I contacted them, they wanted pictures. Fine. Now they say that the replacement tire they show being sent was not the tire they sent me. Well whose fault is that?? Duh. Someone screwed up on their end and I'm supposed to pay for it! Ridiculous. Their last communication accused me of lying! Why the heck would anyone put the wrong size tire on their car and then accuse someone else of sending it to them? None of that makes a lick of sense. They have lost my business and I'm spreading the word. I have a good local used tire shop and I will return there. Is a HUGE mistake to try these folks. If they keep up this kind of horrible customer service they are toast anyway.

Best Used Tires - Goodyear Tires Review from Pretoria, Gauteng

I bought 4 matched set of Goodyear tires 95-99 percent tread for 285.00. I received them in about 3 days, tread looked good.

I took the tires to the service station to be mounted 3 had holes in the sidewall, said could not mount or be repaired.

I thought about returning them, but at 32.00 a tire shipping and 15 percent restocking fee, kind of like giving them back for free, I'm not taking a chance on Best used tire selling the tires to another unsuspecting customer. Randy B.

Sounds fishy. Why are you resding or commenting if you have no issue with the tires?

Just decided to see who is randomly complaining about a company one day that you had an issue with as well but was resolved and comment on their behalf?

Maybe they should disclose which tires have plugs so buyers can make the decision to purchase or not. Not disclosing which tires have plugs is tricking customers since they know those won't sell.

I had a bad tire with a side wall leak. Sent them a picture of the leak.

They sent another tire same day.

I am okay with them. Big savings

After seeing all the complaints, I'll skip getting tires at Best Used Tires for my son. I want him to be safe. I'll buy them new locally or most likely within an hour at Sam's Club, where i purchaed my Goodyear Triple Treads, which I love & was the best price at Sam's Club. Thanks to everyone for giving your feedback & complaints online for others to see. I cant can't afford to get scamed & get faulty tires. And I definitely can't afford letting my son take a risk by having tires from Best Used Tires put on his truck.
