Purchasing Low Profile Tires at L&D Auto Specialists
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
My vehicle was having some mysterious interior water leaking issues when it would rain. I took it in and worked with Jose, Angel, and Hector, each of them are incredibly knowledgeable and professional. They diagnosed the problem pretty quickly, explained everything to me clearly, and handled the repair in a really reasonable time frame. You can tell they know what they're doing and take pride in their work. Finding a shop that's both skilled and honest hasn't been easy for me personally, but these guys for sure exceeded my expectations of quality work! Recommend!

I've been bringing my cars to this shop for over 10 years, and I can honestly say they've always done an exceptional job. I fully trust Angel, the head mechanic he's knowledgeable, honest, and truly takes pride in his work. Whether it's a routine service or a more complex repair, I always feel confident leaving my vehicles in his hands. Jose, who works in the office, is also great,he's always there, professional, helpful, and makes the whole process smooth and easy. It's rare to find a shop that's consistent, trustworthy, and genuinely cares about their customers. Highly recommended.
