How to Shop for Tires: 3 Tips to Find Great Value [infographic]

Unless something has gone very wrong, your tires are the only part of your vehicle that actually touches the ground. Because of this, they have a big impact on your car’s overall performance, including how it handles, how safe it is, and how it feels to you and your passengers. Like everything else, your tires will wear down over time and will eventually need to be replaced. We at Country Town Tire & Auto Service Center want to help you get the best performance from your car, and we understand that new tires are a bit of an investment. To help you get the best value when you shop for tires, we put together a list of three expert tips.

  • Check Your Owner’s Manual- A lot of your tires’ value lies in how well they hold up over time, and that in turn depends on how well they fit your car. Manufacturers make recommendation about what size and style of tires work best for your vehicle, and this information is included in the owner’s manual, and on the information placard that’s permanently affixed to your door edge. Check these sources before you start to shop for tires for a good place to begin.

  • Make Sure Your Car is in Good Shape- As mentioned above, a lot of your tires’ value depends on how they work with your car, and a car with a misaligned suspension will cause any tires to wear quickly and unevenly. Our team at Country Town Tire & Auto Service Center can inspect your car for such issues before you shop for tires to ensure that you’re not throwing your money away.
  • Buy a Full Set- While it may be tempting to replace your tires one or two at a time if some are more worn than others, we at Country Town Tire & Auto Service Center advise against this approach. Modern suspensions are designed to work with a matching set of tires, so replacing all of them at once is the best way to maximize their lifespan.

We hope that these tips allow you to shop for tires with confidence. If you have further questions, you can always reach out to our team at Country Town Tire & Auto Service Center.
