Myths Vs. Reality: Buying And Installing Tires

Although tire replacement has become commonplace since the requirement for winter tires, many people still hold onto certain preconceived notions about the process. While some myths are perpetuated with the rise of the internet and big-box stores, Groupe Park Avenue aims to debunk two myths once and for all surrounding the purchase and installation of tires.

Myth #1: Superstores Offer More Affordable Tires

Known for their wide variety and affordable prices, superstores may seem like a good choice for buying tires. However, it is important to note that, in the vast majority of cases, these stores do not sell the same tires as authorized dealerships. In fact, even though the brand and the name of the tire may be the same, it's the serial number that differs, indicating a different quality.

As a result, tires offered in superstores are often of lower quality than those sold at dealerships and may not last as long. They also run the risk of delivering poorer road performance, which can be particularly noticeable in electric vehicles due to their generally higher weight. However, Groupe Park Avenue is committed to providing the highest quality tires at the most competitive prices by matching the prices of competitors for identical products. Simply present proof to your Park Avenue dealership, and we will adjust the price accordingly, ensuring that you always get the best price.

In addition to the manufacturer's regular mail-in rebates, purchasing a quality tire doesn't necessarily mean it's expensive. Furthermore, you can take advantage of the advice from our team of experts who will be able to recommend tires that suit your needs.

Myth #2: Finding an Appointment Is a Complicated Process

While specific dates mandate the mandatory installation of winter tires between December and March, the weeks immediately before and after this period are typically busier. However, there are ways to ensure that you don't have to worry when the time comes to schedule an appointment. The easiest approach is to book your appointment before these periods, in the month of October. These times are usually less crowded, allowing you to choose a time slot that fits perfectly into your schedule.

Furthermore, booking your appointment earlier allows you to be prepared for any eventuality, including having your winter tires already installed when those unexpected early snowfalls occur. It's also worth noting that discounts are typically available within the Groupe Park Avenue during these periods, potentially saving you up to 50% on tire installation costs.
