someone has had problems with tyres recently - I'd definitely get the tyres ripped off them, tyres are pretty cheap, the wheels are the rare bit

It is Possible that you could have huge Problems importing second hand tyres that are not Fitted to wheel rims ,This is a quarantine issue

I had 50 wheels and tyres in the last container... they checked every one.
best bet is to remove the tyres, and have the wheels cleaned and spotless, no issue then. (brake dust and dirt is still a contaniment)
