There’s a wide range of tires out there, and we know it can be confusing choosing the right one for your vehicle. From winter tires to off-road, it’s always better to know the difference before buying. Tires also influence your vehicle’s MPG, making worn tires not only a safety hazard but also inefficient.
Take a look at this quick guide for picking the right tires:
All-Season tires
Whether you’re driving snowy roads or dry streets, these tires will fit most drivers’ needs. Tried-and-true, all-season tires come standard in most cars sold today and are designed to give you the best performance for the money.
Off-Road tires (Mud Terrain)
Made of a special tread design, these tires are better suited for rough terrains and uneven surfaces. Off-road tires should not be used on city streets, as the soft tread will wear out as it makes contact with the pavement. Off-road tires are commonly used on military vehicles, construction crews and rural vehicles.
Performance tires
These tires will get you maximum road contact. They are engineered for high speed and aggressive driving and are ideal fro sports cars at track events. Some drivers use them on daily commutes, but the soft rubber will easily wear off over time.
All-Terrain tires
Ideal for SUVs and trucks, these tires will give you the best of both off-road and street driving worlds. These tires have a good grip and contact area, which make them the best choice for versatile applications.
Winter Tires
Winter tires provide extra grip for snow and ice, and are made of a soft rubber that heats up in cold weather. They also have a large amount of grooves so the tread can push the snow down.
