Purchasing Low Profile Tires at High-Tech Auto and Truck Center
What Are Low Profile Tires?
Low-profile tires are a type of tire with a shorter sidewall height relative to the tire's width. They are often characterized by a wide tread and a reduced aspect ratio, which is the ratio of the tire's sidewall height to its section width. Typically, low-profile tires have an aspect ratio of 50% or lower, with some extreme low-profile tires having an aspect ratio of 40% or less.
The aspect ratio in the context of tire measurements is a percentage that represents the ratio of the tire's sidewall height to its section width. For example, in a tire with a size designation of P225/50R17, the aspect ratio of 50 means that the height of the sidewall is 50% of the tire's width.
These tires are popular for their sporty and stylish appearance, as well as their improved handling and responsiveness on the road. They are commonly used in performance vehicles and sports cars, as they offer better grip and traction during high-speed maneuvers and cornering. The reduced sidewall height can lead to a firmer and more responsive ride, enhancing the vehicle's overall performance capabilities.

What Our Customers Are Saying
Great job particularly dealing with long distance! Thank you!
Chantilly, VA
I highly recommend High-Tech for auto and truck repairs. The technicians are skilled and thorough, testing the repairs they make before they release the vehicle back to me. The customer service staff, Zack, Darwin and Taylor, are professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. In this go-round, after the replacement part was installed, I drive away and almost immediately found white smoke rising from the engine. That alarming issue abated at the end of the day. I attribute that to fluid residue on the engine that finally burned off. But for a while it was really exciting
Chantilly, VA
The staff are incredibly nice. I can't speak to price since that area is incredibly expensive overall and I am not from there, but they do good work and are all so polite.
