1. Kaskade Says: I got a flat tire today and need to replace it. I don't care how cheap I can get a used tire, it's only for the time being until I can buy a better tire. What is the usual price for a cheap used tire? Thanks!
2. Fred Says: A good used tire will cost you around $50 to $100 depending on size.

If your car is front wheel drive, you should be ok going with a used tire until you're in a position to buy better tires. However, if it's a Quattro, it's not a very good idea to change only one tire. It's generally recommended that you change all 4 at the same time. If you must buy one or a pair, be sure to get the same brand tire, same tread pattern and very close to the same tread depth you have on the ones currently on the car.

Otherwise you risk running tires that are not the same rolling circumference, which could damage your AWD system. That's an expensive repair
3. g Says: Fred gave you some great advise. Listen to him.

Also, you are driving a very nice automobile, don't go cheap. I understand you plan on replacing all four tires soon, but why not now? If you can afford and 08 A4 you can afford good quality tires, all the way around. Not going to break you. $600 to $800 could do it, if you know what your are looking for.

If you insists on getting one used tire, temporarily, be sure to match not only the exact tire size, but also the same load index, and speed rating. Might be tough to do when shopping for used rubber, very important when you are talking about perhaps the most important component on your vehicle.

Even a good used tire will cost close to $70 to $100, if you are lucky to find what is required.

Typical.
