Help! How do you choose tires?

You got to fill in some info, like are you a driver, owner or fleet owner?

 

How much do u want to spend

 

If your interested in fuel mileage you want tires with a low rolling resistance. If your going to CA you need low rolling resistance tires

 

First what type tire do you need? Rolling resistance is important , can make a huge difference in fuel mileage. Most tires , their RR is listed on a site Amercia Moves By Truck. Good info . But if you need a full on off road traction tire , you want one that will get you out , so RR is a mute point.

 

Do they even enforce that? I would like to hear from someone who was actually warned about not having compliant tires. My guess is CHP doesn't bother enforing it. As long as it has air and enough depth they let you roll.

 

Talk to a tire professional. Tell them where you run an what you are willing to spend.

How you drive and what you haul will determine how long they last.

Don't buy the square ones !

 

Comi-fornia doesn't check for Low RR Tires.

As it is, they barely have the money or personal to check for C.A.R.B. Compliant trucks.
