The Truth About Tires

For drivers who experience winter driving year after year, purchasing a Winter / Snow Tire & Wheel Package will save you money over time. With a Tires and Wheels Package, you eliminate mounting and balancing truck snow tires, SUV snow tires or any type of winter / snow tire on a different set of wheels. With a dedicated set of wheels, you can install the Tire & Wheel Package yourself and be prepared for any unexpected early storms. Also, be sure to look at affordable wheels such as steel wheels to lower the cost of your Tire & Wheel Package. If you have questions on whether steel wheels are the right choice for your vehicle, read "Alloy vs. Steel Wheels in Winter Tire & Wheel Packages." Also, since many drivers prefer the simplicity and value of steel wheels, you can find if they're available for your vehicle by visiting our Upgrade Garage.

Let's say you're looking for a winter package for your 2002 Acura TL. After entering your vehicle's information, you will have the option of choosing between the 16" and 17" package. And if you need help choosing the proper tire for your Tire & Wheel Package, take a look at "Understanding the Tire Performance Categories for Winter / Snow Tires." If you're looking for value and good deep snow performance the Firestone Winterforce is a good tire choice for your Acura. Once you make your tire selection, our website will allow you to choose a steel wheel as an option. The factory Acura lug nuts are not compatible with the steel wheels, so we'll include new lug nuts for free.

Note: Steel wheels are not available for all Winter / Snow Tire & Wheel Packages.
