New bikes have front and rear reflectors, but they may be missing from used bikes. If your bike doesn't have them, make sure you get them from a bike shop. If you're riding at night, you'll also want front and rear lights.



You can start with online auctions and ad sites. Many of these tires are sold by people who love their cars so much that they always want new tires. Moderately used tires may be perfect for your use depending on your type of vehicle, driving style and usual driving conditions.

It's not unusual now days to spend over a thousand dollars on a set for the average pickup truck or SUV. And passenger car tires can be big bucks too depending on what you're shopping for.

Always search for cheap tires from known manufacturers. This ensures you of a good quality tire for a budget friendly price. You can also go for stores that offer tire discounts. In this way, you'd be able to get a really good tire that is half the original price. Just make sure that these bargained tires are of good condition so you'd still get the value of what you pay for.

Profile - The sidewall height is represented as a percentage of the width so a 195/70 R14 means that the sidewall or profile height of the tire is 70 percent of the width. Often the profile is not mentioned and that normally means that the tire is a standard 82 or so percent. Never assume though as this is a common misunderstanding that can occur when buying used tires. There is nothing worse than buying something that simply does not fit - ask the person selling the tire to read you all the numbers on the sidewall to make sure!

If you want to get the best from your car, you should buy 4 studded tires instead of just 2, unlike some people think. The reason for that is the fact that with 4 studded tires installed on your car you will have a lot better control over the vehicle and you will easily avoid getting involved in a traffic accident. On the other hand if you use only 2 tires, the risks of losing control over the vehicle when driving on ice are a lot higher.

The other benefit of car part is that you reduce a lot of environmental pollution. Imagine if tires that can be used are not used, we would have a heap of rubber which is non-degradable. It helps cut down a lot of waste. You are protecting the earth.

First off, lets determine when you actually need tires. Most people are familiar with the penny method for measuring tires. That's where you stick a penny between the tread grooves with Lincoln's head upside down. If you can see the top of his head, it's time to buy tires. This is correct if the tires are roughly equally worn across the entire width of the tire. I should mention that if your tires are in fact so low that you see the top of honest Abe's head you are at the absolute lowest you should go before replacing.

Mud tires come in a huge variety of brands from which you can choose the one that best suits you. The tires with reviews from users are the best to invest in as you can be sure about them. You could also consult family and friends who have used the tires or interacted with people who have, for advice.
