With the rate at which inflation has risen lately, you're probably looking for as many ways to cut costs as possible. While you'll be OK buying generic bleach, as our high school chemistry teachers would say, bleach is bleach; it's just a mixture of sodium hypochlorite. But tires are not tires. Don't skimp when it comes to your and your passengers' safety.

Whether you know it or not, the tires on your vehicle are key to safe driving. The last thing you want to do is run out and buy the cheapest set of rubber you can find. That said, some decent, affordable all-season tires are available for most vehicles. We'll start with your best five options and include a handful of others you might want to consider.

Things to Look for When Buying Tires

Before you let price dictate which tires you buy, keep in mind the long-term costs of purchasing low-quality tires. Saving money up front doesn't mean it's a better bargain. You will have to replace cheap tires sooner than you would high-quality models. That's one thing to consider.

Other things to look for when purchasing tires are fuel economy, warranty, noise ratings, and DOT codes.

Oh, and you want to avoid used tires at all costs. They are not safe. That's because you don't know their true history, and tires have expiration dates. Tap or click here for our full report on why used tires are a bad idea.

5 Best All Season Tires

Without further ado, here are the top five affordable all-season tires, in no particular order, even though we've numbered them.

1. Falken Sincera SN201 A/S

When discussing top-of-the-line affordable tires, the Falken Sincera SN201 A/S leads the pack. It's designed for compact and mid-size vehicles and delivers outstanding all-weather responsiveness and exceptional durability at an incredible value. It is offered in both T & H speed ratings with Falken’s 65,000-mile limited tread life warranty and its 30-day ride guarantee. Comfort and performance are delivered with this affordable option.

2. GT Radial Champiro Touring A/S

These tires have a 60,000-mile limited warranty and built-in road hazard protection — need we say more? Oh, and they even come with roadside assistance! GT Radial is an iconic brand you can trust. So, it comes as no surprise the GT Radial Champiro Touring A/S tires are long-lasting, quiet and efficient.

3. Lexani LXTR-203 

undefined

Lexani is well-known for producing wheels and tires for high-end and custom vehicles. But the company also has a couple of bargains in its portfolio. Take, for example, the Lexani LXTR-203. This well-priced tire comes with a 40,000-mile warranty while offering pleasant road manners and consistent all-weather performance.

4. Nexen N'priz AH5 

undefined

Ever heard of Nexen tires? Now you have. This bad boy has a 50,000-mile warranty and roadside assistance for 36 months. Not only that, but the N'priz AH5 is fuel efficient, so you get more bang for your buck. This tire was designed with longitudinal grooves that improve drainage performance, a rigid shoulder block design to enhance cornering and handling and offers a quiet, comfortable ride.

5. Ohtsu FP7000 

undefined

Falken is a household brand, and Ohtsu is its associate company. So, you know you’re getting a high-quality product minus the big-name overhead. Symmetrical, non-directional tread allows the Ohtsu FP7000 to provide responsive handling and braking. Meanwhile, a variable shoulder tread block design reduces noise and increases comfort.

There are so many good all-season tires out there that choosing five isn't really fair. So, we've picked through our roster of A/S favorites and found a couple dozen more you can get starting at under $100 (prices vary based on size). We think you'll be pleased to find that even top-tier tire brands offer affordable all-season tires with excellent warranties and performance.
