About the discount Tire Calculator

Buying new and used tires can be a choir at the best of times. It is a costly business buying new tires for your vehicle but your can keep the cost of buying new tires to a minimum if you do your research, compare tire prices (at discount and full cost) and use the tires prices you find to negotiate with the tire seller. Negotiating the price of tires is a lot easier when you are purchasing several tires. It is really worth checking all the tires on your vehicle when one has become worn or damaged and requires replacing.

If a tire has worn with age, you will typically find that the other tires on your vehicle have also worn. car tires for example normally need replacing in pairs when they have worn with age, the two front tires tend to ware at the same rate and the two rear tires will also typically wear at the same rate. The exceptions to this rule is tire ware is caused by:

• Offset loads: an example being a large truck that regularly carries heavy wait on one side, a window fitters truck for example
• Wheel misalignment: If a wheel has become distorted or is not aligned correctly then the tire will ware unevenly. This is typically identified by excessive tire wear on the outer edge of the tire.
• Poor driving technique: If you corner too quickly, accelerate fast and brake hard, you will ware your tires down far faster than you would if you drove carefully. Driving too close to the sidewalk can also result in picking up debris between the tire tread and or damaging the tire if the debris has sharp edges (like glass fragments, metal fragments, nails and screws etc.). Debris on roads often ends up close to the sidewalk or in the middle of the roads as the debris is flicked out by vehicles as they drive by.
• Axel misalignment: Vehicle axels can distort when weight tolerances are exceeded, they can also wear and warp with time or in excesses of temperature or, more typically, due to all of the factors mentioned. Axel misaligned, like poorly aligned wheels, will result in excessive tire wear on the outer edges of the tire. You are also likely to notice more vibration through the steering columns and more noise from the vehicle.
