What tires are best for a 1998 Toyota Land Cruiser? 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 Toyota Land Cruiser tires like where and how you drive, and what tire brand you trust most. When thinking about your driving conditions, consider where you live (mountains vs. city vs. countryside) and the kind of weather can catch you off-guard. (Watch out Tornado Alley!) Many drivers who live in states that experience all four seasons choose to purchase two sets of tires: one for summer and one for winter. Other drivers prefer the convenience of all-season tires. They make one trip to the tire shop and they're pretty much ready for rain, light snow, or sun!
Next, consider your driving style. If you're a diehard off-roader, you have very different tire needs than a highway commuter who doesn't leave the paved path. Visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care for help selecting the tire that's right for you, or get started by browsing tires that fit your Toyota Land Cruiser.

Your 1998 Land Cruiser’s oil should be changed according to Toyota’s recommended oil change intervals. No matter the mileage, your Land Cruiser may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear knock knock knock coming from the engine, sense an oil smell in the cabin, or see an excess amount of vehicle exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Toyota recommends if you haul heavy loads, frequent dusty roads, go off-roading a lot, or go long distances at low speeds.

We’ll follow the battery inspection with a visual check of your Toyota Land Cruiser’s filters, lights, wiper blades, alignment, tires, hoses, belts and fluid levels.
While every visit to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care includes a Courtesy Check, we can also dig deeper and perform a Complete Vehicle Inspection on your 1998 Toyota Land Cruiser if you prefer.

Regular, proactive service on the radiator in your 1998 Toyota Land Cruiser is essential for long-term engine health.

You might be driving around (or about to be stranded) with a failing radiator if you see coolant leaks under your car, high engine temperatures, or a dashboard light that indicates low coolant.
When you come to Firestone Complete Auto Care, we’ll begin your radiator repair with an in-depth inspection of the cooling system in your Toyota Land Cruiser. We then do a machine-powered radiator exchange, replenish flushed chemicals, sealants, and lubricants, and then pressure check for leaks.
