Default How much can you save on part-worns?

I've been thinking about this recently, as I prepare to swap back onto summers as the snow and cold weather finally recedes.

In my case, I've worked out that I've saved approximately £5,000 buying and using part-worns over the last two years - a not insignificant figure

How did I arrive at that figure?

Well, as follows: 2 of my three cars (My Model S and S8) have both winter and summer tyres - so that's four sets of five wheels, i.e. 20 tyres in total.

All 20 of the tyres for both these cars were bought as part worns (and all from DM Tyres in Oldham ) - at an average saving of £250 per tyre. so 20 x £250 = £5,000).

So thanks Ainar!, for alerting me to these guys . I must buy you a beer next time I see you!
