It’s very hard to figure out how to get started, and particularly if you haven’t bought tires before it’s doubtful you have a feel for the specifics of what you need. I hope this article will assist you purchase your next pair of tires. This is the kind of guide we wish we would of had the first time we bought tires.
Step 1: Closely examine the tires you have on your car at this time. Inspect the size, type, model #’s etc… Look at the sidewall of the tire for almost all this information. If you don’t understand what it all means, that’s ok. Be sure you jot it down on a piece of paper for reference though. Are you sure you need new tires? Be sure to check for that.
Step 2: Call up our featured tire shop or the tire shop of your choice and say: Hi, I own a 2006 Toyota Camry and I’m wondering what kind of tires you have in stock for that make and model? (rotate your make and model clearly) Grab something to write on, and jot down everything they say. Don’t hangup until you have the exact price including installation, and the detailed facts and figures on the tires. You might have to ask but,check out what the manufacture suggested mileage is. NOTE: Some shops will say they don’t know what kind of tires your car needs. That’s why you wrote down all the details of your current tires. Now they should have no trouble giving you the info you need.
Step 3: Get in touch with other tire shops in the area and compare what they tell you with the first shop you called.
