The Top 5 Tire Brands of 2017

Choosing tire brands can be tricky if you are shopping for the first time. There are actually brands that are designed for different types of roads and weather. Buying the wrong brand of tires can give you poor performance when you are cruising on the road. There are tires that perform well when the road is muddy or just wet. There are others that are designed for aggressive drivers such as those who participate in Formula 1 and Grand Prix.

At the end of the day, it’s your choice of tires that determines the experience you will get.

Below is a list of top brands that have stood out this year according to TreadHunter Tire Brands.

1. Goodyear Assurance

2. Pirelli

Pirelli is another established brand that has been in the market for many years. The tire can withstand all weather conditions including rain and snow. The brand is recommended for vehicles that cover long distances. Vehicles that roll on these tires can go for many miles without reporting a flat.
