When I first entered the workforce I had several beater cars. One thing I always try to save for these days is new tires because I’ll never forget how much money I lost trying to make it in used tires.
In 2015 you could get 4 used tires for about $160. I would spend that every couple months because I couldn’t afford new and they would constantly get nails in them.
When I finally was able to afford a car with less than 50k miles on it and it came with new tires I’m pretty sure they lasted me well over 2 years. You can save thousands by having $600
