Alrighty folks.

I work at a top secret Council Depot..

we have loads of used tyres coming in to be disposed of- Mainly in 14/15/16/17" sizes. most are above tread wear limits, and undamaged.

Have spoken to my boss and may be able to get an arrangement in place where the tyres can be diverted from the dump.

Assuming I can get enough people interested in getting them.

YOU WOULD HAVE TO PICK THEM UP YOURSELF!!

Depot is approx 1hr south of Crail/Knockhill and 1 hr East of Glasgow.

Anyone interested?

Please start a list below!

Neil

Anyone in the North of England interested???

about 2hrs from Newcastle!

moving to scotland in about 6 weeks, how far is this place from Lossiemouth/Elgin?

tyres always have a use......

Drifting, what be that?

I'll be going to Knockhill on the 17th of May, and will be staying in Lochgelly, Fife, on 16th-18th ish. Any 205/50/15s or 195/50/15s with BEEEEF (as much tread as possible) would be greatly appreciated!

MJG will need about 10 pairs from you ;)

you'll need more then tyres...prob new wheels too..... cant drive with bricks lol...

Blimey, thought the word Free alone would have had every Scottish zoner camped outside your depot

Can you send some of them to Sweden Neil?

with your description i assume this is in or near your abode in newtongrange? anything free gets my attention and ill happily relieve you of some 17's and 14's. in fact ill take as many 17's and 14's as i can fit in my escort van
giving them away for free will save them money on disposal so everyones a winner

but to a sceptical(or tight) scot the word free will set alarm bells ringing for fear of a catch

You could always collect them on the way up or I could pick them up from Neil anytime i'm down at his place
I'm only about 45mins from Lossie and could drop them off if needed
