Tire shop questions
I’ve got to replace my front tires, so I have some dumb tire shop questions. I’ve got to replace the tires on my car in the morning due to uneven front tire wear. I’ll be dealing with a typical suburban Firestone shop.

1. (Most important) If I want to get the front wheel alignment fixed, how much extra time is normal? Five minutes? Twenty minutes? Fifty minutes? I have no idea how long this takes on top of new tires.

2. Is it ever a good idea to have new tires balanced? Or is this something that is only done to used tires?

3. Are there any tire upsells that I need to avoid?

4. What do you say about the “used” tires some shops sell? Are they ok buys? Or should I get new?

Thanks!
