How to Get a Good Deal on Tires

Automobile tires need to be replaced every 40, 60, 80 or 100 thousand miles. There are also times when car tires need to be replaced due to flats and pothole damage. Regardless the circumstance, you want to find the best possible deal on those tires.

Instructions

1. Find coupons. Tire deals are publicized in newspapers, fliers and mailed advertisements. Compare the ads for the tires you seek to locate a good deal.

2. Buy 4 new tires all at once. Many tire stores will give you a good deal if you buy all 4 at the same time. Call your local tire repair shops to ask about any specials.

3. Go to the junkyard if you don't need the tires to be new. You can certainly get inexpensive tires here. Look for tires that have plenty of tread left on the surface and are the same size as the ones you plan to replace.

4. Select higher mileage tires. The longer a tire is built to last, the less expensive it will be in the long run. You might pay $100 for a tire that lasts 60 thousand miles, but for $20 more you can get a tire that lasts 100 thousand miles. If you think about it in terms of paying by the mile, that is a much better deal.
