The Factors of Tire Selection 

Our team at 6 Street Auto Repair and Tires will be with you every step of the way during your tire sales visit. We’ll walk you through the relevant factors of tire selection to be sure you get exactly what you want and need. One important consideration is tread pattern type. All-season tires serve most drivers well. As the name denotes, these generally work well in most weather conditions. They have channeled grooves for dealing with wet road surfaces. If you drive a lot on the open road, you may benefit from performance tires rated for higher speeds. Lots of snowy day driving warrants a look at winter tires, while off-roading often calls for mud or all-terrain tread patterns. These are knobbier. They wear quicker and don’t ride as well, but they handle unconventional surfaces quite well. We’ll also help you get the tires of the correct size. Important dimensions to know are diameter, width, and aspect ratio, which is an expression of the relationship between the sidewall’s height and the tread pattern’s width. You often have choices of warranty lengths, too. A longer manufacturer’s warranty typically equates to higher prices.   

Other Related Services 

In addition to selling and installing new tires, 6 Street Auto Repair and Tires provides the other related services you’ll need. Our experienced team supports you through the life of your tires with the necessary rotation and balancing. Most modern automobiles are equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system. If a TPMS sensor goes bad or needs resetting after a pressure adjustment or repair, we can help. If you have a flat that’s safe to repair, let us fix it for you. We also perform wheel alignments. Many motorists choose to have one done when they purchase a new set of tires to get them off to a good start. If you notice any warning signs of poor alignment, however, you should have us do an alignment immediately to prevent uneven tread wear that will lead to premature tire replacement. Should we make any related repairs, such as those to the suspension, we will stand behind the work with a generous 12-month/12,000-mile warranty.
