The TIRECRAFT Advantage: Why Our Tire Selection Process Is Second To None

The Importance Of Tire Selection

The right tires can make a world of difference. They can help you get better mileage, increase your enjoyment of driving, and help you avoid inconvenient and costly repairs. Most important, your safety. Choosing the appropriate tires not only enhances your safety but also ensures the well-being of your passengers, fellow drivers, cyclists, and pedestrians sharing the road. There is no shortage of tire brands and models out there. It can be overwhelming when you try to research all your options.

Trust The Experts At TIRECRAFT

At TIRECRAFT, we have tire experts who can help you with your tire selection. We’ll take into account the make and model of your vehicle, your driving habits, your driving preferences, and the season, and recommend one or more tires that are suitable for you.

What To Consider During Tire Selection

When choosing new tires, there are a few things you should think about. It might be best to create a checklist to narrow down your options. Some factors to consider include:

Tire Type

The most basic thing to get right is the type of tire you need. If you put tires that were made for an SUV on to your luxury two-door coupe, you’re going to have a bad time. Different sized vehicles need different sized tires. At TIRECRAFT, we know that Canadians like to drive a plethora of different vehicles. That’s why we carry tires for passenger cars, light trucks, pickup trucks, and SUVs and CUVs.

Tire Brands

After ensuring you know the right type of tires to get, the next question is about the brand. Do you have a favourite tire brand? Did the tires on your previous vehicle last a long time? Did a friend, family member, or colleague recommend a specific brand?

Feel free to ask a TIRECRAFT tire specialist if they recommend one or more brands for your vehicle and driving style. All the tire brands we carry will benefit you, but some may be better for certain scenarios than others. Some of the tire brands we have for sale include:

Seasonal Tires

For Canadian drivers, it’s wisest to have multiple sets of tires. Snow tires, such as winter and all-weather tires, don’t just handle snow and ice better, they’re made from rubber compounds that handle cold weather much better. They don’t get stiff, so they’re flexible enough to give you the traction you need even in freezing temperatures.

The Rubber Association of Canada rates both winter and all-weather tires as safe for winter driving. Both tire types have siping and tread patterns to help deal with snow and slush, and their rubber compounds can withstand frigid temperatures. All-season tires are great from spring to autumn. Drivers who want to get the best performance on hot asphalt, summer tires are the best option.

Other Tire Options

At TIRECRAFT we offer many different kinds of tires, there are also certain types of specialty tires we offer. We sell all-terrain tires, if you live in a rural area, if you work in forestry, or if you just love to get off-road on the weekend, then consider a set of all-terrain tires for your SUV, light-truck, or Jeep.

We also sell performance and ultra-high performance tires. If you drive a luxury vehicle or you’re custom building your own hot rod, consider these high performance tires for the ultimate handling and agility. We also sell tires for ATV, lawn tractors, utility trailers, golf carts, farm equipment, and more.
