Find the right tires with the Blain’s Farm & Fleet tire shop.<\/h2>\n

When you visit your local tire shop for new tires, you may have a specific tire brand in mind. If you’re a die-hard “fan” of one tire brand over any other, then you’re going to pick that brand. However, if you’re relatively new to shopping for tires, brand should not be your only focus. With tires, you do get what you pay for. On the other hand, your main goal should be finding tires that are the right size for your vehicle, and will give you the performance qualities you want. With help from the Blain’s Farm & Fleet tire shop, you can find the right tires for your vehicle.<\/p>\n

Know your tire size<\/a><\/strong> – Looking for tires by size is a great way to start. Any tire brand should manufacture the size you need. There are a few ways to find your tire size. The sidewall of your current tire will have it, but you can also find it in your owner’s manual or on a sticker on the driver’s side doorjamb. The latter two are the most reliable ways to find the right size.<\/p>\n

Know what features you need<\/strong> – You’ll want to pay attention to the tire speed rating. You can always go above the manufacturer’s listing, but never go below it. Performance is another factor to keep in mind. Performance tires will give you better handling and breaking, and you’ll be able to drive faster, but you’ll also sacrifice tread life. Lastly, consider road conditions. If you live somewhere with snowy and icy winters, you may need to consider snow tires<\/a> or, at least, all-season tires.<\/p>\n

Know what kind of tread warranty you want<\/strong> – The more you pay, the longer the tread warranty. If you’re someone who does a lot of driving, a longer tread warranty is well worth it. The longest tread warranties can last is for 100,000 miles or six years.<\/p>\n
