Today, Any Car Towing is back with another blog post on tyres. The motivation for it comes from a customer’s question. The precise question was, ‘Are original equipment tires always the best choice for my vehicle?’. It got us thinking that most people have inadequate knowledge about tyres. We do not blame them, nor do we expect them to have expert knowledge in them. However, we have to help car owners know as much as possible about their vehicle and its various components. So, today’s blog post will answer the customer’s question. But first, we need to talk about something else. WHAT ARE ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT (OE) TIRES? If you have been buying tires from Any Car Towing, you will notice that a lot of our products have this term mentioned in their description. What does it mean?

The origin of the spare tyre dates back to the 1900s and now it seems like it is slowly starting to vanish as the car manufacturers have stopped giving you a spare tyre and replaced it with a new technology called inflator kits. The spare tyre is usually neglected most of the time as people only realize its importance when they get a flat tyre. Of course, nobody wants to get a flat tyre. Since there is so much debris on the road, no matter how careful you are, the risk always exists of getting a flat tyre. This is why everyone should have a spare tyre in the back of their trunk as you can never tell when you might run over debris and get your tyre punctured which may eventually force you to be stranded on the side of the road and put your life at risk as well.

Recently, we had a customer complaining that their rear tyres wear out quicker than the front tyres. Any Car Towing’s experts sat down with the customer and explained the reason. But it got us thinking that every car owner might wonder why their front or rear tyres wear out quicker. So, today’s blog post will address this issue. WHICH TIRES WEAR OUT FASTER?
