Selling car tyres in Quebec City
Quebec City is French-speaking, historic and has severe winters with heavy snowfall. The old quarters have narrow streets and steep access, and the local market runs largely in French, which is worth knowing before you list.
Winter sports equipment follows a sharp seasonal cycle, appearing in spring and selling through autumn. Household turnover is slower than in the larger Canadian cities because more people stay put.
Access in the older parts of the city is genuinely awkward for a vehicle, and snow makes it harder for several months. A listing written in French will reach considerably more local buyers than one written only in English.
Quebec City, in Quebec, has around 550,000 people, which means a steady local market where the usual things move reliably and the unusual ones are worth listing with a wider radius in mind. Montreal, Laval and Gatineau are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Quebec City
Winter clothing and sports equipment move from October, and the spring thaw brings the strongest few weeks for furniture, bikes and garden items.
What car tyres are worth
What lifts the price
- Manufacture date within the last few years
- Matching sets of four in the same size
What pulls it down
- Tyres more than several years old, whatever the tread
- Previous puncture repairs
Working out what yours is worth
- Measure the tread depth and state it in millimetres
- Photograph the sidewall including size and date
Getting it ready
- Read the four-digit date code on the sidewall. Tyres age out regardless of tread, and buyers check this.
- Inspect both sidewalls for bulges, cuts, cracking and any previous repair. Any of these means the tyre should be scrapped rather than sold.

Heavy and awkward but not fragile. Collection is normal. If a tyre has less than around 3mm, sidewall damage or is more than a few years old, take it to a tyre centre for recycling rather than listing it.
Listing is free and there is no selling fee, so the whole amount the buyer pays stays with you. You and the buyer agree the handover between yourselves.
