Cheap SUV Tires

SUVs are generally hard on tires. Chalk it up to their heavy carriage weight and the rocky terrain that their owners are more likely to drive them over. But as a result tires for SUVs are designed for comparatively rough use. They’re larger than car tires, have heaver treads, and wear out more quickly. In all, it looks like a driver will have to factor in extra costs for tires when planning to purchase an SUV.

But comparatively cheap SUV tires are out there. Give your ute a look and see what size tires it drives with. You can usually find that smack-dab on the side of the tires, where a small square lists the size number. If you’re in doubt, then by all means ask a professional.

The Internet has myriad Web sites that sell cheap SUV tires. Some Type “cheap SUV tires” into the search engine of your choosing, and you’ll get hundreds, maybe thousands, of results. These include cheap SUV tires from respected brands, like Dunlop, Michelin, Goodyear, Toyo, Kumho, Bridgestone, and Firestone.

Most of the SUV tires you can buy online are sold as sets of two or four, but a few sites sell them individually, too. If you do buy a single tire, just take care that it’s the same size and brand as the other three tires on your vehicle. Mixing and matching sizes and brands can result in uneven tread wear and long-term damage to your vehicle.

You’ll find SUV tires at bargain prices off the Internet at tire stores in your neighborhood. Some wholesale warehouses, such as Costco, sell inexpensive tires. Automotive body shops also sell tires for SUVs at marked-down prices, though you might have to catch them when they are having a sale or clearance event. Check the classified ads in your newspaper and phone directories on the Internet for listings of places that you can visit.

Also, don’t rule out buying used tires. Some vehicle owners gather from time in auto swaps and flea markets. Catch a few of these and you could grab great deals on still-usable tires for your SUV. Use common sense if you’re going to take this route. Make sure it’s the right tire for your vehicle. And inspect it thoroughly to make sure that it’s not the worse for wear—treads still intact, and no cracks, plugs, or other signs of prior damage on the surface.
