What's the right tire for you?

Choosing the best tire for your vehicle doesn't have to be a chore.


  1. Start with the vehicle you drive.
    Do you drive a luxury sedan, an off-road truck, an energy-efficient compact, an electric vehicle, an SUV or CUV, or even a sporty convertible? What you drive can make a big difference when it comes to finding just the right tire.
  2. Consider where you drive most with your vehicle – the conditions, surfaces or terrain your vehicle is most commonly driven.
    Stop-and-go traffic, long distances on highways, or rough roads and surfaces? The types of road surfaces you encounter most regularly give you a good place to start.
  3. Determine if you could benefit from a special-use tire.
    Heading for some off-roading, cutting a new path through heavy snow, or heading to the track for a little competition? Sometimes the special use case needs to be the deciding factor.
