Frequently Asked Questions About Buying New Tires

Q: What do I need to know before I buy new tires for my car?

A: Generally, before going into the shop to buy tires, you should know what type of tires your car needs, how many miles you want them to last, how much you want to pay, and whether or not you want to stick with your current tires or go for an upgrade.

Q: How do I find out what tires fit my car?

A: You can either look on your current tires to find the number/letter combination that indicates the size and also the brand, but you could also look in your car manufacturer's guide, which will list all the tire sizes compatible with your car.

Q: What are the different kinds of tires?

A: Generally, you can get all-weather, summer, or winter tires. The right one for your car will depend on the weather and driving conditions in your area. All-weather tires are the most common and work well throughout the year in changing weather conditions. You can get all-weather tires in standard or high-performance, which have a little bit better traction in snow and icy conditions. Summer tires work well in temperatures above 40-degrees, but they cost a bit more. Finally, winter tires are for people who experience long winters and a lot of snowy conditions. You probably won't need to shell out for winter tires just for one season around Waco and Spring, TX.
