How to Select The Right Tires For Your Auto

By Dennis Allan

Selecting the right tires for your car is something many people don't do. It can give you a smoother ride and save you money long term.

You need to make sure that you are getting the right size tire for your car. It can save on wear and tear, and you won't have to replace them as often. The tire wall itself has this information, but it is also in your owner's manual, or you can ask at a store.

How you drive can also impact the tire you need. Most people can use an all terrain one and it suits their needs, but if you routinely drive where there is no pavement, then an off road tire might be better. If you use freeways, and go faster, then a high endurance tire may be better suited to you.

Weather can also play a role in the selection. While the all terrain works for many people, if you live where it is really hot, then a summer tire can make your tires last longer. Conversely, if you live where it's icy and snowy, a winter tire can make driving safer for you.

When you replace tires, you need to think about changing all five at once, giving yourself a new spare that can be rotated. This will get you the most out of your money, but if you find that you only need two, find out why. It is unusual to wear them out at different times. You can also save money with buying a full set as well, so keep an eye on sales for those.

Selecting the right tires for your car is a must if you want it to perform the way the car manufacturer intended. It saves on wear and tear to your car, and can make riding in your car smoother and more comfortable. - 21396
