Choosing the Right Tire is Easy & Affordable at Ganley Ford West in Cleveland, Ohio

Do you realize your tires are your vehicle’s only connection to the road? That’s eerily true when you think about it. Yet, many drivers put more energy into selecting a grade of gasoline than selecting tires. Some in Lakewood, Ohio like others in Euclid, Ohio and Westlake, Ohio know all about octane and emissions. Steps to choosing the right tire, on the other hand, remain a mystery to most. Fortunately, when it comes to footing a Ford, tires and wheels are understood and properly matched at Ganley Ford West in Cleveland, Ohio.

Yes, there is a pun intended by our use of the word footing. Not only to add a bit of humor to a technical conversation. But also to provide a correlation that everyone can relate to. You see, just as your shoes affect your feet and influence your overall mobility, so do your tires affect your wheels and influence your vehicle’s movement. We could draw more lines from legs and spines to drivelines and suspensions, but there’s no need for that in this chat. Instead, we simply need to drive home the point that choosing the right tire is essential to ensuring safe and fluid movement.

Step one to selecting tires mirrors that of choosing shoes since all searches begin with size. Your tire size is written on the sidewalls of your tires, and it can also be found in your vehicle literature. No matter the model of your Ford, tires and wheels as recommended by the manufacturer are ideal starting points. Why doesn’t it end there, you ask? Well, for wheels it usually does. But maker recommendations are not the end all be all when selecting tires for a few reasons.

Leading the list and demanding your attention are vehicle use and driving conditions. A vehicle that is primarily used for a daily commute from Cleveland to Lakewood, for instance, will not need the same tires as one that makes repeated runs from Euclid to Westlake. And as your vehicle’s manufacturer has no clue of what you do on a daily basis, talking to an expert at Ganley Ford West is the best way to blend what your vehicle needs with what you need it to do.

Since the service department at Ganley Ford West is staffed by locals, it’s also the best place for choosing the right tire based on our driving conditions. Think winter, and surely you’ll agree that advice on handling roads in Northeast Ohio has to come from someone with hands-on experience. Research is nice and analyses are great. But until you’ve encountered black ice and blinding snow during rush hour on I-77, anything you have to say is a well intentioned guess at best!

That’s why occasional drivers and constantly moving motorists count on the service team at Ganley Ford West for help with choosing the right tire. Selecting tires is serious business for all who brave the highways in Lakewood, Ohio and the freeways between Euclid, Ohio and Westlake, Ohio. And for those who do it in a Ford, tires and wheels are assets rather than liabilities with input from the experts at Ganley Ford West.
