you can spend $50 on a tire or $200 depending on size and type

estimated mileage is listed on the tire ads when you select them

and maybe if you want decent help, try giving us the slightest info needed to know what type of vehicle you even want tires for

I’ve put about 75k on my current set of BFG rugged trails. Best tire I’ve ever owned. Really wish they weren’t discontinued. The set cost me around $900 in 2012.

On my F-150 I would get a set of 265 Michelin's for about $800. I think the cheapest I could find were a no name for about $600. I want to say I get about 60,000 miles on my tires, but my odometer hardly ever came on in the F-150 so it was difficult to say.

I'm not looking for tire advice.

Just making conversation about tires b/c many spend a lot on tires. This vehicle gets driven less than 5K miles/yr.

but still, "what vehicle?"

a carolla has 14" tires you can get for $40

a truck has 17"-20" tires that can cost $200 each

kinda hard to answer a question if you dont really finish asking it

if that is all you drive then it doesnt matter, go to walmart and buy the cheapest "general" (yes that is the brand name) tires that they sell. got my dad a full set for his camry for $240 new valve stem and balanced out the door. todays cars add another $100 for new seals for tire pressure monitors all around

Truck and van both have 16" wheels.
Van was $425 for Kumho 235/70r16


Truck was $785 for four Michelin 265/70r16


Most expensive tires I ever had were 20"s in 1999. $1800 for four tires mounted. (Pirelli)

Cost. I think I paid $75 for a single tire. My uncle owns a tire shop, he gets them for me at cost.

Silverado.
$537 = $587-$50 rebate installed and out the door.

4 - 255/70R16 Mastercraft Coursers 60,000 Miles.

So $134.25 per tire installed.

Between $750 and $2000 depending on vehicle/tire and between 20,000 and 65,000 miles depending on vehicle/tire.

I never skimp on tires, they are the most important piece of active safety equipment on a vehicle.

I just replaced all four and got an alignment for $1300 all-in after tax.

Bought them on tire rack.

Around $2k for the Pirelli P--Zero and around $3k for the Michelin Sport Cup 2...I go back and forth depending on season.
