Shopping for tires is a big expense so you want to make sure you’re getting the best tires you can afford for your vehicle. If you’re not sure where to start when buying tires, here is some advice that can make the experience easier and get you back on the road and driving confidently just in time for summer.

 

 

On the side of your car’s driver-side door, you’re likely to find a card or label that reveals important information about your vehicle. This includes details about your car’s factory-issued tires and the proper tire pressure for optimal performance. You can also find this information in your owner’s manual or turn to a trusted auto technician for help. If you know what kind of tires your vehicle is intended to have, it’s easier to shop for new tires of the right size.

 

 

If you can, replace your full set of tires at the same time. This will help ensure even wear over the life of your tires. It’s wise to replace at least two tires at a time if spending the money on four isn’t feasible. 

 

 

In many cases, the tires you buy will come with assurances of reliability and durability from the manufacturer. Depending on the offered warranty terms, if a tire is defective, some tire makers will cover repair or replacement costs. Be sure to read the fine print and talk to your mechanic to ensure you understand the terms of any warranty.
