About car owners Toyota

Many car owners don’t realize that the tires that came with your car were selected to make the most of its capabilities and provide the best ride for you and your family. If you love the tires that came with your Toyota, the best recommendation is to stick with those tires. Just know that your original tires may have a higher price tag than some other tires. There are similar options available at a lower cost, but you will sacrifice some of the benefits.

Because tires wear out after six years regardless of wear make sure that the new tires you purchase are, in fact, new. Numbers on the sidewall of your tire indicate the “born on” date of your tire, among other things. Look for a four-number combination like 1015, which indicates that your tire was manufactured during the 10th week of 2018.

If you’re looking into high-performance tires for your Toyota you will enjoy the benefits of sportier handling. Just remember that “high performance” refers only to the tire’s handling capabilities, not its durability. Sports cars, large SUVs, and high-performance tires all have benefits that many drivers enjoy, but powerful or large vehicles put greater stress on tires, causing them to wear a bit faster than tires on standard sedans.

After you have new tires installed, give them about 800 km (500 mi) of break-in time to remove any lingering residues from the manufacturing process. These residues may increase braking distance slightly or reduce optimal handling in their first few weeks.
