Things to Check While Buying New Tires for Your
Car
2
It may look like buying new tires should be an
easy task, but there are several things to
consider to be able to drive away with confidence.
3
Better educate yourself about tires as there have
been many cases of shops installing the wrong
type of tire.
4
Heres a handful of important things you should
check when you're buying new tires.
5
The tread wear indicator
6
Age of a tire where the structural integrity of
a tire is compromised and it could also mean a
tire has reached its end of life due to wear.
7
One of the easiest ways to check this measurement
is to visually inspect the tire tread wear
indicator bar that is part of the tire itself.
8
Tread wear indicators are molded into the tire
and when the tread wear indicator is visibly
flush next to other treads, the tire tread depth
is unsafe and tires need to be replaced.
9
Tire sizes
10
Most people arent aware that installing the
wrong tire size can be both damaging to your car
and outright dangerous.
11
Tires that are too tall for your car can cause
their edges to rub against your struts or wheel
wells and if you go too small, you can create
stability problems on the road.
12
Never allow anyone to install tires that arent
manufacturer recommended, and never mix tire
sizes if youre not buying a full set of four.
13
Driving habits
14
The tires themselves are manufactured
differently, offering a bit more flexibility on
the side wall to accommodate higher performance
and better grip.
15
Check the recommended speed rating of your tires
against your owners manual, but also take into
consideration how you drive.
16
Choose tires that offer optimum performance in
rain and snow if you live in an area that
receives both.
17
Tire warranty
18
This is one of the most important things to look
at because it can directly impact how soon youll
have to replace your tires again.
19
Tires come with a range of mileage warranties
that run the gamut between 30,000 and 100,000
miles.
20
Higher performance tires usually wear out more
quickly, and in some cases dont even come with
mileage warranties.
