Whether you polish spark plugs as a form of meditation or a car is just a thing to get you from A to B, we can all do with a little help when it comes to choosing the most appropriate tyres for our circumstances. Wherever you fall on the car-owner spectrum, the friendly crew at Eastern Tyre Centre is here to make sure your journeys are smooth and uneventful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our primary goal is to make sure you and your family are safe on the roads, which should in no way detract from the enjoyment of the drive. The fact is, those four black round things your car sits on amounts to no more than four handprints-worth of contact with the road. Needless to say, selecting the right tyres is important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Let\u2019s take a look at our customers\u2019 most common queries when they\u2019re in the market for the best tyres for their Lexus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Firstly, let\u2019s briefly go over your tyres\u2019 primary functions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now let\u2019s take a look at tell-tale signs that indicate you need new tyres.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tyres come with handy indicator bars, which are simply little ridges of rubber that sit within the trenches of your tyre\u2019s tread. If the walls of the tread are getting close to these indicator bars, or sitting flush with them, you need new tyres. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In fact, once the tread is worn to this level, your car is no longer considered roadworthy. If your tyre tread sits above the indicator bars but there are worn patches here and there, you will most likely need new tyres. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
We\u2019ve written a wonderfully informative blog<\/a> on the importance of tyre tread for your edification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s important. Air is what makes your tyres rigid and gives them the strength to support the weight of your car. The right pressure for your tyres can be found on the inside of the car door or in the driver\u2019s manual. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Check it regularly and adjust as necessary; driving for too long on the wrong pressure can wear your tyres prematurely (apart from simply being unsafe). <\/p>\n\n\n\n Yes, we\u2019ve also written a superb blog<\/a> on tyre pressure too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Feel a slight vibration through the steering wheel when driving? <\/p>\n\n\n\n This probably means your Lexus’s tyres are unbalanced. <\/p>\n\n\n\n This can lead to premature wear and the need for new tyres sooner than would otherwise be necessary. Book your Lexus in for a wheel alignment and balance at your next service and, in the meantime, read our blog<\/a> on this topic to learn more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Well, since you\u2019re asking, right here! <\/p>\n\n\n\n The team at Eastern Tyre Centre has been providing and servicing the best quality tyres for Melbourne drivers for over three decades. <\/p>\n\n\n\n We know the industry, we know the market, and we know what\u2019s best for your Lexus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As a Best Drive Centre, we have a huge range of tyres suitable for a wide range of luxury vehicles, not to mention we\u2019re one of the biggest Continental stockists in Melbourne.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We have the product and the expertise to help you buy the right tyres for your car, whether that\u2019s a Maserati or a Tesla.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Our aim is to provide you with a quiet and comfortable ride.

Let\u2019s take a look at some factors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A good quality, typical-size tyre will cost you around $150 to $200. <\/p>\n\n\n\n A premium tyre, such as a Continental, Michelin or Bridgestone, is closer to $250 to $350. <\/p>\n\n\n\n You can find budget tyres for as little as $100 to $150.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Tyre manufacturers invest millions in R&D so that their products offer high performance and safety. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The big names cost more because their products are typically at the bleeding edge, providing a better and safer ride.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Run flat tyres promised a lot when they came on the market. <\/p>\n\n\n\n A tyre you can drive on even when it\u2019s punctured? It sounded too good to be true and, in its early days, it probably was. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Run flats can still operate when punctured because of their reinforced sidewalls, which means they won\u2019t collapse under the weight of the car. In its initial phases, this unfortunately meant an uncomfortable ride.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Today, though, run flats have improved mightily. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The ride comfort is much better, particularly in the higher end products such as the Continental SSR, which is indistinguishable from a traditional tyre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n So you can have the performance coupled with the convenience of not having to change a tyre on the shoulder of a busy freeway in the pouring rain. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Still not sure?
