What tires are best for a 2006 Toyota RAV4? Check out the following tire brands and types.
Beyond the correct tire size, you also want to consider a handful of other factors when buying new Toyota RAV4 tires like which tire brands you like most and where you drive. 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!) 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 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!
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 Toyota RAV4 tires online or come to your nearby Firestone Complete Auto Care for help selecting the tire that's right for you.

If you bring your vehicle to Firestone Complete Auto Care, we start with a comprehensive inspection of your Toyota RAV4’s cooling system. Then, we’ll move on to a machine-powered coolant exchange.

If you’re about to lose your cool over a too-hot engine, rest assured that we’ll take excellent care of your 2006 Toyota RAV4 at Firestone Complete Auto Care.
