What is the quickest, easiest way of getting old tyres in the UK?
I live in a city centre (Exeter, Devon) with no car so anything like an out-of-town scrap yard is out of the question (severely cutting down my options I know!)
There are a couple of MOT stations and a KwikFit within walking distance however.
I am after a tyre from a tractor, lorry or large 4x4 to use in my fitness training, so it doesn't have to be road worthy (I am going to bash the hell out of it with a sledgehammer).
Any suggestions?
PS, I intend to roll the tyre home with a gang of mates, if need be) in case you're wondering!
I would approach local farmers & ask if they have any old tyres lying around. Most farmers have loads of junk lying around & will probably be happy for you to haul it away for free.
Failing that try ebay, link below.
