1994 Toyota 4Runner Repair, Service & Tires

Beyond the correct tire size, there are a couple of other factors to consider when buying Toyota 4Runner tires like where and how you drive, and what tire brand you trust most. When evaluating your driving conditions, think about where you live (countryside vs. city vs. mountains) and the kind of unexpected weather you're likely to experience. 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 buy one set of all-season tires instead. That way they don't have to return to the tire shop and their vehicle is always ready for sun, rain, and light snow!

Next, consider your driving style. If you're an avid off-roader who yearns to pioneer new paths, you have very different tire needs than a highway commuter who doesn't hit the hills very often. Browse Toyota 4Runner tires online or come to your nearby Firestone Complete Auto Care for help selecting the tire that's right for you.
