Are tires tested or sold as-is?

All tires we sell are inspected and tested before they’re approved for sale. We never sell tires that are unsafe or below minimum tread standards. When we remove tires from incoming vehicles, our technicians check each one for tread depth, age, sidewall damage, and signs of uneven wear. We also look for any patches, plugs, or repairs. Only those that meet strict safety requirements are tagged for resale.

We use professional equipment to check air retention and bead seating. Tires that pass these checks are cleaned, cataloged, and stored in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight to prevent deterioration. Most of the tires we sell come from vehicles that were in good condition or were recently replaced, meaning they still have plenty of usable tread life left.

While we do sell used tires, we apply the same level of care and integrity to this category as we do to every other part we handle. We make sure our customers understand exactly what they’re buying — including the tread depth, brand, and any minor cosmetic imperfections. For complete transparency, we encourage customers to inspect tires in person or request photos if purchasing remotely.

We also sell tires as part of wheel-and-tire sets, which are often ideal for quick replacements or seasonal swaps. Whether you’re looking for a single tire to replace a damaged one or a full set for your vehicle, you can count on 603 Auto Salvage to provide safe, affordable options that meet your needs.
