Selling car tyres in Imphal
Imphal is a valley capital ringed by hills, and its central market is run entirely by women — one of the largest such markets anywhere and a genuine institution rather than a curiosity. Handloom weaving is widespread and skilled here.
Freight into the valley is slow and costly, so goods stay in circulation locally for much longer. Government employment and students leaving for study elsewhere both move households on predictable cycles.
The central market is the landmark everyone knows and is the natural meeting point. The city sits in a flat valley, so movement within it is easier than the surrounding terrain suggests.
Imphal, in Manipur, has around 270,000 people, which means a smaller local market, so price sensibly and expect the right buyer to be willing to travel a little. Mumbai, Delhi and Bengaluru are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Imphal

What car tyres are worth
What lifts the price
- Tread depth well above the legal minimum
- Recognised brands with no repairs
What pulls it down
- Tyres more than several years old, whatever the tread
- Sidewall damage, bulges or cracking
Working out what yours is worth
- Measure the tread depth and state it in millimetres
- Read the four-digit date code on the sidewall
Getting it ready
- Measure the tread depth across the whole width with a gauge, not by eye, and record the figure.
- Inspect both sidewalls for bulges, cuts, cracking and any previous repair. Any of these means the tyre should be scrapped rather than sold.

Lifts in autumn as people prepare for winter and around MOT season. Common sizes with genuinely good tread sell quickly; worn or aged tyres do not sell at any price and should be recycled.
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.
