Wheels and tires are important but often overlooked vehicle components that can either make or break the style of your custom ride. Whether you need tough off road tires for your next adventure or something a little flashier to turn heads on the street, MSA Customs has you covered.

Good wheels and tires are super important for your vehicle’s performance. Let’s look at why keeping them in tip-top shape is important.

Safety

First and foremost, a good set of tires is important for the overall safety of your vehicle. That’s because tire tread helps your vehicle perform on different surfaces. A good tread can more easily grip the road and prevent accidents like hydroplaning or skidding on slippery surfaces. High-quality tires provide better traction and protect your vehicle from rain, snow, ice, or other environmental factors.

A good set of tires also provides better braking distance, the distance it takes for your vehicle to stop after braking. Better tires reduce this and ensure you can stop quickly and safely.

Lastly, good tread on high-quality tires gives your vehicle better handling and stability. This reduces the risk of accidents by giving you better control over your vehicle.

Performance

Now that we’ve discussed safety let’s discuss performance. A good set of wheels and tires gives your vehicle higher performance on various terrains, such as rocks, sand, or mud. Thicker tread on off-road tires provides better grip in slippery scenarios, whereas high-performance street tires can improve acceleration by reducing wheel spin.

If you take your vehicle to the race track and want better overall performance, a good set of quality tires can help. This is especially true in cornering scenarios, where you need better turning and gripping capabilities. And finally, when traveling at higher speeds, certain tires are designed to handle the enhanced friction on your wheels. Better tires contribute to the overall performance and speed of your car.

Comfort

Have you ever traveled in a car and been annoyed by the sound of the road? Sometimes, it’s unavoidable if you’re traveling on an old, rough road. However, this can often be attributed to low-quality tires. 

A good set of high-quality tires can reduce the overall road noise inside your vehicle cabin. That’s because better tires produce less road noise, which contributes to an overall quieter ride. They can also help to make your ride smoother. Better tires are more adept at absorbing road imperfections, giving you a smoother, less bumpy drive.

Aesthetics

Wheel and tire upgrades aren’t just about performance and safety; sometimes, you want to customize your ride just to show off! Wheels can add style and flair to your custom ride. The right wheels can significantly enhance your vehicle’s look and give it a personalized appearance. Custom wheels come in various styles, finishes, and sizes, making it easy to customize your wheels to your unique vibe.

After you get your wheels customized, you can get the perfect set of tires to go along with it. Whether you need thick tread or more street-ready tires, MSA Customs can give your whip a customized look that will help you stand out from the crowd.
