How to Choose the Right Tires and Wheels,[object Object],August 2011,[object Object]
    Your car has a powerful engine, sophisticated transmission, elaborate suspension and countless other automotive technological advancement under the sun, right? ,[object Object],However, here is something about your car that you may not think about very often. Your tires are the single connection to the surface of the road. ,[object Object]
Tire technology advances,[object Object],	Luckily, we can all rest assure that tire technology is at an all-time high and it keeps getting better. For example, many new developments from tire manufacturers such as Bridgestone, address important features including  wear life, wet performance and dry performance, fuel efficiency, ride comfort and noise reduction.  ,[object Object]
Need new tires?,[object Object],If you have bought a new or used vehicle and have come to the point where you need to replace the tires, here are some tips to consider:,[object Object]
Simple Tire and wheel tips,[object Object],[object Object],    type of tire that fits your needs ,[object Object],[object Object],    vehicle when it was new,[object Object],[object Object],    improves dry and/or wet handling that is still the same,[object Object],    size as the OE tire,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
#2 Weather and terrain requirements ,[object Object],Where do you live and drive most of the time? Most of us live in a climate where inclement weather is a factor seasonally. For example, if you live in Michigan or Ohio, you'll want to look more closely at a capable all-season tire than if you live in Arizona or New Mexico. For those of us that live in Snow Belt states, an all-out snow tire for the winter that you swap for standard tires in the milder months is a great option. Many tire stores can help store your off-season tires, during idle months.,[object Object], ,[object Object]
# 3 Speed rating ,[object Object],Do you think you are going to need a tire that is speed rated for anything over 100 mph?  Here is a list of tire speed ratings.  It is not recommended to use any products in excess of posted legal speed limits.,[object Object], ,[object Object]
#4 Ride Quality ,[object Object],A low-profile tire, referring to the height of the sidewall, such as a 50 or a 40-series looks great, but can be harsh over bumps or potholes (when compared to a 55 or 60.) A lower profile tire also exposes the wheel to damage more easily.,[object Object]
# 5 Noise ,[object Object],Some tread designs are noisier than others and varies significantly between tire brands and tread designs. If most of your driving is on lower-speed city streets, then this may not be much of a factor. However, for highway driving, you will want to consider options, especially if you drive an SUV on paved streets most of the time. ,[object Object]
Switching to different wheels?,[object Object],Consider both the style and performance improvements:,[object Object],[object Object]
 Use the plus sizing concept for style and performanceBesides appearance, the plus concept is a key reason to switch wheels. Plus sizing your tires and wheels is a great way to improve your cars exterior but it also improves the performance. ,[object Object]
Benefits of new wheels.,[object Object],The benefits of a good-quality alloy wheel are numerous. For example, you end up with reduced unsprung weight compared to steel wheels. This is a factor affecting a vehicle's road holding ability and improves brake cooling. The metals in alloy wheels are tremendous conductors of heat and improve heat dissipation from the brakes. The risk of brake fade is also reduced under more demanding conditions such as vigorous driving twisty roads. Additionally, alloy wheels can be designed to allow cool air to flow over the brake calipers and rotors.  ,[object Object]
Talk with a tire technician, today.,[object Object],These considerations are important to overall driving enjoyment.  Be sure that you and the tire technician communicate accurately about your requirements and enjoy the road ahead.  ,[object Object]
