Is it OK to put different size tires on a car?

Once you choose a tire size for your vehicle, you’ll want to stick with that size when you buy replacements. The reason for this is that a differently sized tire can confuse your speedometer and even cause damage to your vehicle’s anti-lock braking systems and stability system calibrations.

Does it matter what tires I put on my car?

There are three things to understand when buying new tires for your car; the size, speed rating, and load index. Making the correct selection is very important to maintain optimal performance, safety, and fuel efficiency. Fortunately, all of this information is easy to find.

What tire size can I substitute?

As a general rule, you want replacement tires that are within 3 percent of the diameter (height) measurement of your existing tires’ diameter — assuming your current tires are what your owner’s manual recommends.

What tires and rims are compatible?

Width and diameter are the two factors that determine tire and rim compatibility. For diameter you’ll need to be sure that your tires and wheels are an exact match, e.g. a 215/65R17 tire will only fit on a 17″ diameter wheel. There’s a bit more flexibility when it comes to wheel widths.

Is it cheaper to buy tires and rims together?

By packaging your wheel and tire purchases, you save time and only pay for one total installation—half the price of having them installed individually.

Should I downsize winter tires?

Tire downsizing is an important winter driving preparation. Not only are snow tires expensive, especially larger diameter ones, they can also be less effective on snow and ice. The more narrow the tire, the better it tends to perform on snow and ice.

Can I put different size tires on the front and back?

For optimal safety and performance, Continental recommends fitting the same tires to every wheel position on your car, so drivers should have the same brand, size, tread pattern, load index, and speed rating on the front and rear tires.

Is it OK to buy 2 tires instead of 4?

It’s usually dependent on the vehicle itself and the remaining tread depths on the other tires. It’s always best to replace all 4 tires at the same time. This is because all 4 tires spin independently of one another, and different tread depths and/or styles can cause them to spin at different speeds.

Is it OK to change only 2 tires?

If two of your tires wear out faster, it may only be necessary to replace those two instead of replacing all four. If you do, it’s important to have the two new tires installed on the back and the partially worn tires moved to the front – even on front-wheel-drive vehicles.

Should all 4 tires be the same brand?

For optimal safety and performance, it is recommended that vehicles are fitted with the same tires to every wheel position on your car. That means having the same brand, size, tread pattern, load index, and speed rating on the front and rear tires.

Is it OK to replace only one tire?

Keep in mind, you can replace just one tire if your other tires have most of their tread, but you must make sure you buy the same Tire Brand/Make/Model of your other tires for optimal performance.

How often do you need to rotate your tires?

On average, how you know when to rotate tires depends on vehicle mileage. Namely, it’s a best practice to rotate tires every 5,000 to 7,500 miles or so. This is a rule of thumb, however, and you’ll want to double-check with your vehicle’s owner’s manual for more specific information.
