Purchasing Low Profile Tires at Mountain Peak 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.

What Our Customers Are Saying
Great people !
Got me in quickly, for a headlight replacement. Two other shops told me I'd have to either make an appointment or leave my car for a few hours to see if they could work me in. Super welcoming, very nice. Seating area was very clean.
Gave me a great deal on a lift kit install compared to other local shops. Definantly would bring your car or truck here
Gave them a call with a couple problems I was having with my vehicle. They gave me quick, honest, and fair estimates, and had the work done in a timely manner. They also let me know about some additional maintenance that would need to be addressed going forward. I'll be coming back here again if I ever need additional work done.
