Finding A Used Tire For Your Ride

After reading about 15 reviews, you can get a pretty good idea whether the tire is a piece of crap or not. You can also get a good idea whether it's suited for the type of use that you need it for. For example, you live in a climate that only has light snow once in a while. By reading lots of reviews, you can decide what the best All Season tire for your type of vehicle is. Instead of buying winter tires.

Visiting the shop will also assure you that they really have the wheels that they offer and advertise. After choosing the wheel that you wanted, you need to ask the store if they also install the wheel if you will buy it from them. If they do installation, check their installation area, if it is clean, organized, and neat. If you are not comfortable to let them install your wheels, you can go to the shop you are comfortable with to do your wheel installation. Doing so possibly mean higher cost and can be a hassle in transporting the tires and is therefore not recommended.

The first thing to cover is the tires that came on your new vehicle may be a major brand, however many times that name brand tire is not the same tire that you will purchase when going to the tire store. What I mean by this is that automotive car manufacturers will bid out the tires to the cheapest bidder. So for example Michelin may come back with the cheapest bid and put a Name brand tire on the vehicle really cheap, That same tire may be built differently than the same tire you would purchase at a tire store. However it does get the Michelin name out there so 50% of the people will replace the current tires with the same name tire at a much higher cost. This in now way is accusing Michelin or any other tire manufacturer of doing this as I am only using the name Michelin as an example.

Its important to either ask (if you are buying off EBay) or check yourself if you can for that the tire you are buying is not for example a snow tire - sometimes it can be hard to see from a photo on an auction site but the tires you are buying may have a snow or off road type of tread which will result in extremely poor handling and traction on tar seal. Its important to check that if you are looking for an on road only tire - that is what you end up purchasing.
