Buying car tires is costly, but you can always save money if you wish. The main thing is not to rush when buying the first oncoming tires, take a closer look at the assortment of different stores and compare prices
Instructions
Step 1
If at the moment you are very limited in finances, and you need to buy tires desperately, you can buy used tires. Used tires can be bought cheaply at almost any tire service. You will find a wide range of used tires on free classified ads on the Internet. In this case, you will purchase tires from their owner, who will tell you exactly how long the tires have been in use, whether they have been repaired. In addition, you can bargain with the owner and get a substantial discount. But no one will give you a guarantee of the quality of tires, so when buying used tires, be extremely careful - carefully consider each tire. Check the tread, patches, hernias, and spikes on winter tires.
Step 2
If you still want to buy new tires cheaply, it is best to do so at the end of the season. So, at the beginning of autumn, you can buy high-quality summer tires at a very attractive price. Accordingly, it is best to buy winter tires in the spring, when sellers, trying to free up warehouses for summer tires, make good discounts for winter tires.
Step 3
Of course, few people will want to spend money on the purchase of tires if they are not useful in the next six months. As a rule, most motorists start thinking about buying tires at the same time - in autumn and spring, when it’s time to “change shoes”. At this time, the demand for car wheels is especially high, and sellers are trying to set maximum prices. However, if you take your time and consider different offers, you can significantly save on the difference in price from different sellers. So, for example, the same tires in a specialized tire shop will cost an order of magnitude more than in a hypermarket.
Step 4
Even at the height of the season of “changing shoes”, tires can be bought cheaply at various promotions and sales. For example, a new auto parts store, wanting to attract customers, can set good discounts on tires just in season. So during this period, be attentive to such advertisements, do not rush to send leaflets from the mailbox to the trash, study the information on local sites and forums of motorists.
Step 5
Like any other product, tires are sold under different brands, some of which are more valuable, others less. Tires identical in quality and properties can have a big difference in price precisely because of the manufacturer's popularity. Cheap Chinese tires are not always inferior in quality to European manufacturers. Study information about different brands, read reviews on the Internet, and you will surely find for yourself the most optimal combination of price and quality.
