What tires are best for a 2000 Nissan Altima? Check out the following tire brands and types.
Other than getting the proper tire size, you also want to think about a couple of other things when getting new Nissan Altima tires like where and how you drive, and what tire brand you trust most. Think about where you live (countryside vs. city vs. mountains) and the kind of unexpected weather you're likely to experience when evaluating your driving conditions. Drivers in states that fully experience all four seasons often buy two sets of tires: one set for winter, one set for summer. Other drivers prefer to purchase one all-season set to limit trips to the tire shop and make sure their vehicle is prepared in the rain, sleet, snow, or sun!
Driving style is next on the list to think about when buying tires. If you're a big off-roading fan who forges paths where others can't, you have very different needs than a long-distance commuter who sticks to the highway. Browse Nissan Altima tires online or come to your nearby Firestone Complete Auto Care for help selecting the tire that's right for you.

Nissan recommends having your 2000 Nissan Altima’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. No matter the mileage, your Altima may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear engine knocking, smell oil inside the vehicle, or see an excess amount of vehicle exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by Nissan if you regularly haul heavy loads, frequent dusty roads, go off-roading a lot, or drive at low speeds for long distances.
Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care has the right 2000 Nissan Altima motor oil: either synthetic or conventional. Consult Nissan's recommendations to select the right 2000 Altima oil and talk with a teammate to learn more about our oil options: Quaker State® Advanced Durability™ conventional oil, Pennzoil® High Mileage Vehicle® motor oil, Pennzoil Platinum® Full Synthetic motor oil with PurePlus™ Technology, and Shell Rotella® heavy-duty engine oil.

This check will include an examination of system pressure, a visual inspection, and a leak test.

The transmission delivers power from the motor to your wheels so that you can drive at your desired speed.

Every service performed at Firestone Complete Auto Care includes a multi-point Courtesy Check. To start, one of our technicians will check the battery in your Nissan Altima to see how much charge it has left – and determine if it may fail in the near future. After we’ve inspected your Nissan Altima’s battery, we’ll visually inspect your lights, windshield wipers, filters, fluid levels, belts, hoses, tires, and alignment.
We perform a Courtesy Check any time you bring your car to a local Firestone Complete Auto Care for service, but we can also dig deeper and perform a Complete Vehicle Inspection on your 2000 Nissan Altima if you prefer. In addition to a visual check of everything that's included in a Courtesy Check, a Complete Vehicle Inspection also includes an examination (by hand!) of your steering and suspension system, brakes, and exhaust components. This inspection is aimed at informing you of any major problems that could wreak havoc on your 2000 Nissan Altima if left unaddressed.

Staying on top of routine radiator maintenance for your 2000 Nissan Altima is crucial to keep your engine in the best possible shape for years to come. Nissan recommends that you replace coolant (also called antifreeze) at certain intervals, but you can also take note of any signs your radiator is going bad. Your radiator could be close to causing an engine breakdown if you notice a low coolant light or higher-than-normal engine temperatures on your dashboard, or if you spot coolant leaks coming from your car.
If you bring your vehicle to Firestone Complete Auto Care, we start with a comprehensive inspection of your Nissan Altima’s cooling system. Then, we’ll move on to a machine-powered coolant exchange. Finally, we’ll refill the flushed sealants, lubricants and chemicals, then do a pressure check to catch any possible leaks. If you’re about to lose your cool over a too-hot engine, rest assured that we’re here to give your 2000 Nissan Altima the top-notch service it needs.
