I had needed new tires for so long, that it was almost a bit scary every time I had to go for a drive. The tread was worn down. I could see this just by looking at the tires, and I even did the penny test my father taught me about years ago when I got my first car. The thing is, and I was well award of this fact, the tires of one’s truck, car or motorcycle are perhaps the single most important safety feature on the vehicle. When tires are old and worn the probability of experiencing a blow out on the highway increases exponentially. This I was aware of, and what I was also aware of were two nails, one in each of the two front tires. Add all this to the fact that the hot desert environment I drove in everyday, puts aditional wear and tear on all things, especially on car tires. I wanted to make sure that I would find good tires, such as Vredestein tires I had researched online. And I also wanted to find tires that would match not only the recommendations for my make and model, a Chevy S-10, but that would match the look of my truck. There are many brands such as B.F. Goodrich and Dunlop tires , and many varying prices and sizes so I first checked my owner’s manual to find the size I needed. I then looked at how much I wanted to spend, as I did have a budget to work within and I wanted the best possible tires for what I was able to spend. I checked online for consumer reports and ratings. I new that I did not want to go for used tires, I wanted brand spanking new ones. I took into consideration that I drove mainly in the city, so while the off road all terrain tires were big, and tough looking, I did not need them for the type of driving that I did on a daily basis. I do frequently however, carry heavy loads in the bed, so I checked up on that too. In the end I found the perfect tires for my truck, and once they were mounted I knew that life just became a little bit safer for myself, for my pickup and for all the other driver’s navigating the hot, desert roads.
