Purchasing Low Profile Tires at Wieland's Auto Repair

What Are Low Profile Tires?

Low-profile tires are a type of tire with a shorter sidewall height relative to the tire's width. They are often characterized by a wide tread and a reduced aspect ratio, which is the ratio of the tire's sidewall height to its section width. Typically, low-profile tires have an aspect ratio of 50% or lower, with some extreme low-profile tires having an aspect ratio of 40% or less.

The aspect ratio in the context of tire measurements is a percentage that represents the ratio of the tire's sidewall height to its section width. For example, in a tire with a size designation of P225/50R17, the aspect ratio of 50 means that the height of the sidewall is 50% of the tire's width.

These tires are popular for their sporty and stylish appearance, as well as their improved handling and responsiveness on the road. They are commonly used in performance vehicles and sports cars, as they offer better grip and traction during high-speed maneuvers and cornering. The reduced sidewall height can lead to a firmer and more responsive ride, enhancing the vehicle's overall performance capabilities.

Customer Testimonials

2015 Equinox timing chain slipped during start. Ryan got it right in for inspection and supplied pictures in email showing metal in oil along with bent valves. Matt took a look and suggested a remanufactured engine instead of used as these engines are known for oil consumption and timing chain issues. The remanufactured engine has upgraded high tension rings and more holes in piston for drainage. Their experience and reasonable quote convinced me to this route. They pulled the old one out and put the new one with no code issues. They tested it for 10 miles and it have had no issues to date. Very satisfied with service and good folks.

"Matt did exactly what he said he would do in repairing my boat trailer bearings and installing new bearing buddy's. I'm out of town--- so he picked up trailer-completed work in timely fashion and returned my boat to same location for just a small charge. Thank you again Matt and I'll definitely use your business for my auto + boat needs!
