You have no idea what you are talking about. Look up used tire shops in your city. To OP's point, most of the used tires are nearly brand new tires that are getting tossed out because 1 of the set had a flat. So I am rolling on $300 Hanook tires with 95% of their tread life, and I only paid $50 a tire (including install). These are also mom & pop businesses that are actively preventing waste. I made the switch to used tires and have never looked back.
