Tyrants were appointed to avoid looming revolution by lower-class citizens in city-states. Their job was to strike a balance between a ruling aristocracy and the poorer farmers who were being plundered by those aristocrats..
They succeeded in this but the long term problem was that the tyrant had to employ a large bodyguard to protect himself from being murdered by the disgruntled aristocrats, and to pay them he had to impose a tax. The Greeks hated taxes, and eventually would expel the tyrant.
