15 inch wheel

As you only have 2wd you can do what you like with tyres but I recommend staying at least in pairs. If you want to go back to 4wd later it will be cheaper to stick to matching tyres and then you can rotate if you like to even wear.

Part worms can be an option if you are on a really tight budget. But buy from a reputable source and check the date code on the tyres. (4 digit code on side wall) it is in a box with round ends and tells you the week and year of manufacture.

Tyres have no predictable life. It does’t matter when the tyres were made. Tyres age even when not used, or if only used occasionally. #There are many factors that will affect the life of the tyre such as temperature, maintenance, conditions of storage and use, load, speed, pressure as well as driving style. These will have a great impact on the length of service life you can expect from your tyres.
Pay regular attention to your tyres
For these reasons, Michelin recommends that all drivers pay regular attention to the external appearance of their tyres for clear signs of aging or fatigue. This can include cracking of the rubber or deformation, etc. Excessive aging of tyres may lead to loss of grip. Michelin also recommends all tyres, including the spare, are inspected regularly by a tyre specialist. They can tell you whether your tyres should continue in service.#

How old is too old? The five year test
After five years or more in service, your tyres should be thoroughly inspected at least once per year. If the need arises, follow the recommendations of the vehicle manufacturer regarding replacing the original equipment tyres. As a precaution, if the tyres have not been replaced 10 years from their date of manufacture (see how to read a tyre sidewall), Michelin recommends replacing them with new tyres. Even if they appear to be in usable condition and have not worn down to the tread wear indicator.
