Find out how to choose the right tires for your car
You don't need to be a tire expert, just follow our simple tips. They are here.
1. Find out the tire size in your car
To select the correct type and size of tire for your vehicle, simply refer to the recommendations provided by the manufacturer or tire manufacturer.
2. Choose tires suitable for the weather.
In Poland, frosts can be expected from November to April, and winters can be harsh. Therefore, we advise you to purchase winter tires that are better able to cope with low temperatures, as well as on snowy and icy surfaces. Winter tires have been tested for performance in snow and mud. Look for tires with the symbol of three mountain peaks and snowflakes.

3. Choose tires according to how you use them
If your car is under heavy load, you should take this into account when choosing tires. Make sure you select a tire with the correct load index. You can check what is required in the car owner's manual.
4. Look for tires that are better than average
Don't skimp on tires. It is the tires that determine the braking distance and driving in difficult conditions, and sometimes they can simply save the life of the driver and passengers. Higher-quality tires can also last longer, and many of them, thanks to their low rolling resistance, help reduce fuel consumption.
Few tires can guarantee a high level of all three parameters. That is why it is worth familiarizing yourself with the offer of many tire manufacturers.
5. Pay Attention to Running Costs
Before you decide to take advantage of a promotional offer, check how much it will actually cost. Buying car tires is one of those investments where you should bet on quality. It's better to spend a little more money and buy tires that perform better than average: more safety, longer life, and savings every time you fill up. This logic is already being followed by leading tire companies. Buying more expensive tires is often more profitable.
