ive got 3 185/55-15 part worn tyres that i got free and i was going to fit to my cesaros, but after fitting one and seeing how lost it looked in the massive sidewall, decided against it..

now im stuck with 3 tyres and no where to put them. step dad is getting pissed off with them being in the shed.

what are the rules on disposal? can i just take them to the tip or do they have to go to a specialist tyre disposal place?

as ben said just take them down the local tip.

round here they normally take 4/5 before getting funny about you having so many tyres.

Put your fake dad in the shed and put the tyres in your mums bed.

Local tip should do it so long as there aren't too many.

May also be worth a cheeky list on Ebay, buyer collects for a pound, see what happens.

could do, though im not sure it'd be worth paying for a listing to get rid of them, also, want rid pretty much straight away.

put them over the closest 3 speed cameras and set fire to them, that way, you are eliminating being caught speeding and also helping towards warmer summers
