March 03 2020,

With spring upon us, it’s time to start thinking about summer tires. For many motorists, this rhymes with the need to get a new set of tires. If this is your case, here are some tips to help you make the best possible purchase.

Target the right size

Before you even begin your research, you need to know the tire size that matches the specifications of your vehicle. The tire size can be recognized by an alphanumeric code which indicates the width, the sidewall height and the diameter of the wheel to be used. This code can be found on your tire’s sidewall. If in doubt, don't take any chances and consult your dealer.

Find the right model for you

Once you know the tire size, it's time to choose which model fits your needs and budget. Again, your dealer can be of great help in this area. You can also search online.

Choose your retailer

Now that your choice is made, it's time to place the order. Make sure to do this step in partnership with a reputable merchant. He will then be able to install your tires quickly and you will know who to contact in the event of a problem. Hello peace of mind! Nobody knows your vehicle and the right tires for it like we do here at Marino’s Fine Cars.
