$30 for a used tire (even mounted) would depend on the tire. I know I just purchased a set of new winter tires, for about $60 delivered, but had to pay to mount/balance. Wal-Mart will mount and balance with lifetime balance for $12/tire - which is not that bad considering, and if the guy doing the work does not ruin the rim like happened to me once. Obviously he had no clue how to use the equipment as the clear coat was gone all the way around the rim on all 4. Why I did not make Wal Mart buy me a new set of rims is beyond me, but for some reason I let it slide that day. If/When I buy a used tire I try to negotiate a price, and I figure if a tire shop is selling a used tire it is highly unlikely they paid anything for it, and anything they make is profit. Many years ago I did TV repair (no such thing today), I loved it when I could sell used parts off a junk tv, as it was pure profit, and usually sold for half what the new part would list for, and usually just as good. About a month ago I had 4 tires balanced, and they were off the vehicle, and already mounted. $40 to balance 4 tires, and I thought that was way over priced considering it took him all of about 15 minutes.
