1.Your driving style and operating environment will determine the best tires for your vehicle. Be honest with yourself and your dealer.
I drive like an asshole, speed, and swerve all over the road. I also prefer driving on the shoulder.

2.Tire performance is about compromise. High-performance tires wear quickly and can be noisy. Quiet, long-wearing tires sacrifice some performance.
I want performance to suit my driving style, but they need to be quiet so people can hear my stereo blasting and me yelling at them as I pass them in a ditch.

3.Consider a dedicated set of wheels for snow tires in winter climates. Always run with a full set of four snow tires.
Temperatures fluctuate by ~80* each day. Should I change my tires in the morning before work, and then put on a different set when I get ready to go home?

4.Don't mix and match types and ratings of tires. Handling and braking will suffer. Always replace tires as a set.
I like the tires I have on the front passenger side and rear driver side. Can I just replace the other 2 right now?

5.Always use tires for their designed purpose. Off-road tires are useless on the highway, as are high-performance summer tires in wintry conditions.
Can I use slicks on the back for traction on the road, and mud grips up front for off-road traction, since I tend to pass people off the road?
