Not necessarily. As part of refurbishment for CARS24 Certified Cars (CARS24 Prime, CARS24 Lite), we replace the tyre if they do not meet the RTA approved passing standards on date of manufacture - to be within five years & tread depth - to be greater than 2 mm. All four tyres may be of different brands and minor pattern noise on drive is considered acceptable in line with the fair wear and tear of the tyres. Spare tyres do not have the age limit of five years provided they are road-worthy as per RTA standards. Private Seller PRO cars also undergo tire replacement as needed before RTA passing and registration. For Private Seller cars, tires are not replaced beforehand per RTA standards. However, CARS24 will assist with replacements on a chargeable basis for RTA passing and registration.
