How do we know which tire you need?
From the size printed on your tire's sidewall. A photo of it is the surest way.
| Part of 225/65R17 | What it means |
|---|---|
| 225 | Width in millimeters |
| 65 | How tall the sidewall is, in percent of the width |
| R | Radial build |
| 17 | Wheel size in inches |
The sticker inside the driver door frame shows the size the car came with. If your tires differ from it, go by the tire.
Do you have my size today?
It depends on the size. Common sizes are easier; we check before we book, so the tech brings a tire that fits.
- Common car and SUV sizes are the easiest.
- Low-profile, run-flat and large truck sizes may take longer.
- If we can't get your size, we tell you, and you pay nothing.
Should you replace one tire or two?
It depends on how worn the other tire on that axle is. Tires on the same axle should match, and all-wheel-drive cars may need all four close in tread depth.
- Same size and type on both sides of an axle.
- All-wheel drive: check the owner's manual for tread limits.
- We tell you if the other tire is close to worn out.

It is the tire size: 225 mm wide, a sidewall 65 percent as tall as the width, radial, for a 17 inch wheel.

It depends on what you accept. The last four digits of the DOT code show the week and year it was made, so 2324 means week 23 of 2024.
