Replacing tires?

After my Sister called to tell me that the tire store she was using (1000) miles away was telling her she needed all 4 tires replaced, to correct a bulging issue with 1 tire, I figured it was time to chime in again.

Please consult first your OWNERS MANUAL dealers are reliable but well trained, the manual however tells you exactly what the manufacture "legally" suggests or recommends.

I realize that is the short answer but the bottom line is the typical rule is 5,000 miles or less you can replace 1 tire, otherwise you should at least make sure the axles match. In other words you can typically replace 2. Now I said check the manual because, newer vehicles with active AWD (all wheel drive) may actually need all 4.

Finally I am getting back to it and I am setting up a YouTube channel for "ease and saving the typing please let me know what I can help with.
