Beware of Cheap Tires in Tucson

Do you like to shop for shoes in Tucson?
When buying a running shoe, is quality important?
Does durability matter as long as the shoes look fabulous?
Would you rather have one pair of long lasting shoes or two pairs of lower quality shoes at the same price?

Is the warranty important when buying tires?

Tucson drivers should also think about the safety aspect of tires. The tires do a lot of work – they carry the weight of the vehicle and you and your passengers. You want to be sure they hold the road and provide good traction on AZ freeways and surface streets. If you carry heavy loads or tow a trailer on AZ highways, the tires need a high load rating.

The same principle applies to tires. The major tire brands that you’re familiar with in Tucson are known as Tier 1 tires. These tires are high quality and well-engineered. Comparable vehicle Tier 1 tires are usually priced similarly.

The lowest priced tires on the market in Tucson are Tier 3 tires which are usually imported from China or South America. Since you get what you pay for, you can’t expect a Tier 3 tire to deliver the same performance and durability as the others.

What’s the difference in the tires with high mileage warranties? It’s the rubber compounds and the amount of tread material. As you might expect, you’ll pay more for the longer-lasting tire.

Your tires are the only parts of your vehicle that touch the road. You’re only as safe as your tires are well built. Buy value – not price.
