Used tires in Canada: prices and offers

Updated 4 November 2026

A used passenger tire in Canada usually costs between CA$40 and CA$150, and a set of four can start near CA$200. For the price of the exact size you need, send a request on BlaBlaPrice: give the size and season, and sellers reply with their own offer.

Tread, age and what the rules say

Transport Canada says all motor vehicle tires sold in Canada must follow the regulations under the Motor Vehicle Safety Act, and the Motor Vehicle Tire Safety Regulations (SOR/2013-198) set out the tire classes. Used tires brought in from abroad must meet the criteria in CBSA memorandum D19-12-2. Tread is measured in 32nds of an inch: one manufacturer's warranty note treats the last 2/32 as unusable, so ask for the depth in those units. Check the manufacture date too, because Firestone's warranty runs six years from manufacture when there is no proof of purchase.

Winter, summer and the calendar

Winter here runs from December to February, so late autumn is when winter tires come into demand. Two listings are described for winter: a used BFGoodrich Winter Slalom, and a Cooper AT3 described as a four-season tire approved for winter. Summer tires suit June to August, and a tire with little tread left is a weaker choice in either season, so match the remaining tread to the season you need it for.

Sizes, quantity and delivery between cities

Listings quote per tire, per pair or for a set of four, so check the quantity before you compare. Sizes such as 225/45R18 give the width, aspect ratio and rim diameter in inches, and LT marks a light truck tire. Ask whether the seller ships or fits in your city: Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver, Calgary and Ottawa are far apart, and a set of four has to be fitted and balanced. Fitting prices are not shown in the listings, so ask for them separately.

What to write in your request

Give the size as printed on the sidewall, the season, the remaining tread in 32nds, the quantity, the year of manufacture, the condition, the brand if you prefer one, and whether you need fitting. Add your city and budget in CA$. Sellers can then quote the right tire instead of asking you to start over.

On BlaBlaPrice you describe the tires in your own words in a chat, and a photo helps. The AI asks for missing details such as the size, looks through sellers' websites and price lists in Canada, and shows the prices and businesses it found. Sellers registered on BlaBlaPrice reply in the chat with their own price, terms and delivery, and your contacts stay hidden until you decide whom to contact. See car tires or tires, rims & wheels.
