Hey guys few days ago got used wheels with tires
1. Rear wheels have different brand from front
2. Front has a cheapest tire possible and also I notice patern on tire was different
Left tire on outside showing outside and right tire showing inside
How is it even possible?
Can tires be turned like that or installed like that?

 

It's mounted backwards.

 

can't believe someone could do that

 

I've put directional tyre on the wrong side before, and have had to swap them, bit I am fairly certain I have never seen that done, anyone else?

 

I never underestimate the stupidity the human race is capable of.

 

now I understand why previous owner decided to go with stock wheels, ride probably was weird

 

It will probably work fine but might be an issue in the wet. Different front and rear tires can cause psm issues

 

I had an independent tire shop do that on a Lexus IS 350 I had in the late 2000's. They had good reviews and I thought I'd go with a local business. Some of the fronts were on the back and some were backwards. The rims were also scuffed. I can only assume drugs were involved.

 

Hey guys
question rear tires are dot 27/ 19
Would it still be ok to use them or best to replace them also?

 

I have a personal limit of 5 years on tires. I would personally definitely replace them.

 

I saw a Mercedes S55 at a dealers used car lot after a 124 point inspection. Someone had rotated the tires. 275 in front 245 in the rear. 🤦🏻‍♂️

 

How about this one: We had a Jaguar F-PACE SVR come into the shop a while back fresh from a Jaguar dealer after getting tire service with the obviously wider rear wheels bolted on the front hubs (front wheels at the rear). To add insult to injury, one of the 265/40/22 tires was mounted on the wheel where the 295/35/22belonged (and vice versa). Yes, we were flabbergasted.

 

Those last two scenarios are similar to what happened to mine. I forgot I got out a measuring tape and measured which wheels were wrong and had to tell them because I had wheels and tires all over. What in the name of meth…

 

I ran a set of 8 year old tires at the track and they were fine before they corded. If stored inside they do fine. Sun and weathering can make them crunchy.

 

This.

As long as they're stored inside at room temps, they'll last forever.
