Q:I have a GMC Savana and need snow tires. Any recommendations? Should I get them studded?

I'm rocking the Blizzak WS70s this year and I've been very happy with them. Studs are an old technology these days. In fact, non-studded snow tires are actually starting to out perform studded tires. Yup, it's the future and it's pretty cool. Last 5 years I've been using the Nokian Hakkapeliitta. That is a badass tire but can be rather expensive in the larger sizes. Either one is fine.

Q:Should I change my tires already?

Q:Okay. I just got a G35 and I need winter tires or All- Seasons. First of all, do you think just snow tires are better than all season? Second, what brands/tires do you recommend? Third, do you think studded or unstudied will be best for me. My car is RWD in case you didn't know.

All season tires are crappy in all seasons. they are bad in rain, snow, ice, mud, gravel.... They are a cheap option for people who do not care about their own safety, or the safety of others. If you live, or frequently go where it snows, then winter tires are the way to go. Studded tires, check local laws about that. Tire shops should be able to answer this. Any winter tires made by well known brands (goodyear, bridgestoone, firestone, perelli....) all make great winter tires.

Q:ok can you guys tell me which tire brand is better i only have two options due to CASH!!!! first option is a brand called SUMMIT and the other is a brand called NEXEN the tire size i need is 225/55/16 if any of you guys know where i might find good tires at a low price let me know. thanks

Try craigslist in your area - I just purchased 4 new Kelley Springfield's for $100.00. Often people are cleaning out their garage of tires for vehicles they no longer own for one reason or another. Takes a little time but worth the effort

Q:Mud tires

The tred on the tire should have deep rivets and stuff to dig into mud and get traction

Q:this is the first time for me buying tires. i have a 2002 dodge intrepid SE. i can‘t afford to buy super expensive tires, so i‘m wondering which ones to buy and where. my question is: what‘s the difference between passenger tires and performance tires? what would be good for my car?

Indeed yes, and it has been coming for several decades. Most of us haven't a clue as to what is going on and many of the others really don't care. They don't care until they are truly sick, not once but several times. Our oxygen count is way down we rather drink sodas than water cigarettes, sugars, high fructose corn syrup, and other devitalized foods are plentiful on the grocery store shelves.chicken is no longer chicken, many of the steaks are now glued together and soldugh no one wants to exercise crikeywe are in trouble deep

Q:I have a 2001 accord lx and i recently bought new 17‘‘ rims and 205/50-17 tires to replace the old 15‘‘s and their 205/65-15 tires. My question is about inflation. The placard on my car says to inflate to 29 psi cold for front and rear, but with these new wheels should i raise the psi or keep them at 29?

Actually when you change away from the car manufacturer's tire size, you can put whatever pressure you want. Lower pressure for softer ride, slow handling, more pressure for a firmer ride and handling. The pressure on the side of the tire usually says maximum pressure and the manufacturer puts them there so you don't hurt yourself.

Q:this is the first time I‘m getting my tires changed at costco for my 2010 Lexus RX350. I‘ve never done this before (i‘m only 16) what exactly do i tell the people about my tires. that they‘re 19 inch, P235 tires? is that it or is there more to it?? I don‘t want to sound dumb when I talk to them lol.

If you're all about getting the best price, many tire stores price match. So if you can find the same tire somewhere for cheaper, a tire warehouse might match the price and take 10% off. I've done this twice for two of my friends (I love shopping for deals). You won't need to tell them anything - they know tires. You simply might want to ask them what TYPE of tires you want. As in do you want all season tires? Or do you want summer tires? Or if you live in a rainy area, you might want to get all season tires that are great in the rain (yes they specifically make them - I had the Toyo Versados and they're the best tires I've ever owned).
