Having the Right Tires Makes All the Difference

On the surface, it may look like all tires are created equal. But, we can promise you that finding the right tires for your Hyundai makes a huge difference when it comes to handling, ride quality, and safety.

Larry H. Miller Hyundai Albuquerque stocks a wide selection of car and truck tires, so we can help you find that perfect fit at a fair price.

Understanding Tire Codes

While the majority of your tire code has to do with the size, there are two key figures you'll want to look at when considering which tires are good for your vehicle. The first is the speed rating, and the second is the load rating.

On a standard 15-inch tire, you might see a figure such as P195-60R-15/87S. The first three digit number is the width, the middle two-digit number is the aspect ratio or sidewall height, and the third number is the wheel size. However, the figure that really matters regarding is the very last set of the sequence. This is the load and speed rating, and it lets you know what your tires can handle.

The team at Larry H. Miller Hyundai Albuquerque will always make sure that whatever new tires you choose will match the OEM requirement for your vehicle. If you frequently carry lots of additional cargo, or if you're looking for more high-performance tires for a track-ready build, let us know. We'll ensure you get the extra capability you need to safely embrace your lifestyle.

Tire Tread Patterns

Different tread patterns are good for different things, and you always want your tires to be up for whatever challenges you put in front of them. For instance, if you frequently drive into the mountains where you'll encounter colder temperatures, you'll want your tires to handle more slippery conditions. You'll also want to be sure that whatever tires you choose can displace water to give you greater wet-weather handling, while summer compound tires can more easily hold up to the scorching-hot asphalt of an Albuquerque summer.
