It’s the reality we offer, allowing you to equip your car with the best tires and spread the cost over time.

Financing Your Tires: Spreading the Cost for Planned and Unexpected Purchases
A set of new tires can be a large purchase and an unplanned expense. Tire financing can help by spreading the cost of new tires out over several monthly payments.
Maybe you have been planning for new tires for a while and have just been waiting to save money. Or perhaps you find out you need new tires after a routine maintenance service or tire rotation. Since you can pay anywhere from $250 to over $2,000 for a set of 4 new tires, they can be a stretch on the budget. For these reasons, financing a new tire purchase with a tire payment plan is a practical solution.

Benefits of Tire Financing
- The cost of the Tire Purchase can be Spread Over Several Months. The most obvious benefit is that the price of the tires can be spread over time. These fixed monthly payments can be worked into your budget, so the cash outlay does not come as one big hit. Your purchase can ship to you immediately, and you can roll down the road safely with new tires without stressing your budget.
- Opportunity to Purchase Higher Quality Tires. Tire financing may allow you to buy a higher quality tire or a tire that is a better fit for your climate, vehicle, or driving style. The price of the exact size tire for the same car can vary greatly, depending on the quality and features of the tire. The quality of the raw materials, the amount of material used, the tire-building equipment, and the manufacturing processes can impact the overall cost and performance of the tire. If, during your research, you find a more expensive tire model is a better fit, then buying tires on a payment plan may be the answer. Extra monthly dollars may buy you a more extended mileage warranty, better fuel efficiency, or a higher-quality winter tire. It may also provide the peace of mind that comes with buying a brand with a solid safety reputation and good overall performance.
- It is replacing More Tires at One time. Financing your tire purchase may allow you to replace four tires instead of only 2. Mixing new tires with even half-worn tires will impact the handling and stability of the vehicle during quick lane changes, emergency braking, or weather hazards. The impact on the vehicle’s handling is particularly noticeable when a new tire is mixed with a worn tire on the same axle. This should always be avoided, as tires on the same axle must provide close to the same grip levels and have the same overall diameter to provide stability and traction. Tires with even slight differences in tread depths have different rotations per mile. This can lead to damage to the vehicle’s power train. So if financing means the difference between replacing two tires instead of 1 or 4 tires instead of 2, it is well worth the extra spend.
