Gut erhaltene (Second-hand-)Reifen für Großhandel und Export


Explanation:
If it is a text for advertising you would avoid the word "gebraucht", as it sounds not very elegant. "Second hand" has become a common term in the German language and sounds more fashionable. Furthermore the words "gut erhalten" indicates, that you are talking about something not new, so omitting the "Second hand" is also possible ... and more short.
