5 Tips To Find The Best Tire Prices: Save On Your Next Set At TIRECRAFT

Looking for the best tire prices? You’re certainly not alone. According to a recent survey by IAM RoadSmart, nearly 1 in 3 (30%) drivers have postponed necessary tire upgrades or replacements in hopes of finding a good deal.

Clearly, money matters, but delaying necessary replacements is a mistake. Driving on tires with sidewall damage, worn treads, or more than 6 years of use is dangerous, and even if you avoid a blowout or loss of control, you’ll be paying extra for gas and maintenance.

Besides, the “best tire prices” are already out there—inflation only gets worse with time, after all. Delaying your tire purchase won’t get you ahead, but visiting your local TIRECRAFT could help you save big on your next set. Read on to learn 5 tips to find the best tire prices at your local TIRECRAFT, or get in touch with a local tire tech to book a free consultation.

How To Get The Best Tire Prices: 5 Ways To Save With TIRECRAFT

1. Explore Economy Tire Options—They’re Better Than Ever

Smart tire shoppers know that while economy class tires won’t be winning any F1 races, the right brands can save hundreds of dollars on tire purchases, without compromising safety. Indeed, in many cases, the differences they make in terms of ride comfort, handling, and tread life won’t even be noticeable for any but the most discerning of drivers.

So what brands should you give your attention to, and which should you avoid?

As a general rule, you should avoid the ultra-cheap brands, especially if you’ve never heard of the company, they operate exclusively outside of North America, or their history is hard to find.

For budget-conscious buyers, Cooper Tires is a fantastic “economy grade” option with a storied 100+ year history and plenty of highly rated products. General Tires is another great pick. To get more brand recommendations and explore all of their different options under one roof, get in touch with your local TIRECRAFT.

2. Consider Retreading Your Tires—it’s Safe, Economical, And Eco-Friendly

Retreading tires is a very economical option, with the average set costing 30-50% less than you’d pay buying new. And contrary to popular misconception, retread tires are completely safe—in fact, a study jointly commissioned by the University of Michigan and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration found that “there is no discernable difference between new tires and retread tires in terms of performance, reliability, or stability.”

Giving tires a 2nd or 3rd life also has obvious environmental benefits, keeping tire carcasses out of landfills for longer and greatly reducing manufacturing emissions.

3. Take Advantage Of Seasonal Discounts And Special Promotions

Most top brands offer seasonal rebate programs that can save you $50-150 dollars on your next tire purchase. Look for these around tire changeover season. For example, if you took the advice from earlier and wanted to invest in Cooper tires, you could save an additional $70 on select tire sets up to December 12th via the Cooper Fall Rebate program.

Rebate programs aside, look out for other tire deals featured on our Promotions page throughout the year. For example, in the past, we’ve participated in the Michelin Happy Camper program, which earned some lucky customers a $100 Visa Prepaid card, and the Tradesman Support Program, which got tradespeople an additional $70 off select tire purchases.

4. Collect Rewards Points To Save On Your Next Tire Purchase

The MyTIRECRAFT Rewards program lets customers turn repairs and part replacements into points that can be spent to drive down the costs of your next tire purchase. If you plan ahead and choose TIRECRAFT for your routine maintenance and minor part replacements (e.g. windshield wipers, fluids), you could save a bundle on your next set!

5. Look For Opportunities To Create Long-Term Savings With Warranty Freebies

If you want the best tire prices, think beyond the purchase price. Long term savings can really add up.

For example, by signing up for the Advantage Plus Program, you can get FREE tire repairs and rotations, plus our 30-Day Tire Satisfaction guarantee, so you won’t have to pay for choosing the wrong tires on your first try.
