I buy it!,But i swap the auto for a manual!
I came to buy the Winter tire in thumbnail only because Scotty has it featured.
Hi Scotty, i drive over 200k miles with Godyear All Seasons Tyres. Bevore i had a Winter and Summertyre sets. After i change to the Goodyear i can tell you that these tyres work better in the winter as my last wintertyres. I can recommend the Goodyear All Seasons 100%!! These tyres are also more reliable than any tyre before, a tyre hold 70.000km by my driving👍👍
Yh scotty do more videos like this
BTW forget about tyres and make rubber roads
Scotty , you'd make a great school teacher in auto shop class .
He already is, his class has 4 million students.
He was a college professor.
My HS shop teacher, Mr McClure, was great. And Scotty reminds me of him.
@@ColonelEMHouse haha I have a shop teacher name Mr. McCue. Similar names lol
That's what I was thinking except I was thinking something like "Auto Mechanics for the Non-tradesman."
Tyre shops ought to have this playing in their waiting rooms
Agreed !!!!
an educated consumer is their number one enemy.
Why would they do that? They want people to come in that don't know anything about tires.
First time I saw tires spelled tyres was when I moved to Australia. Didnt know there was another way. 🤪
Bad for business….. they’d rather sell you the most expensive for commission purposes.
I missed the part about which tires “last forever”.
This is simply the best short movie on the tires I have seen in my life. And it is not that I haven’t seen many but because it is that good. Full of knowledge provided in a simple, yet ultimately effective way. Thank you Scotty! You are a gentleman and a scholar 💪👍
The most comprehensive video on tires I've seen yet. Thanks Scotty!
So let me get this straight.
The width is in millimeters, the aspect ratio is in percent and the wheel diameter is in inches.
Sounds like it was arranged by Dr. Susse .
Susse?
Sounds Sus
Who the hell is Dr. Susse???
I think it’s “Seuss”...Oh, well, just stick to ‘Theodore Geisel’. 😂😂😂
The tire numbering system is dumb, why not just display the actual measurements? most dummies dont understand what an aspect ratio is.
Thanks Scotty, great video. My grandson is about to begin his driving career and this is the best description and training video I've seen, EVER. Keep up the good work.
I’m a lady and never understood tires until now-so informative!!! I can walk into a tire shop and know what I’m talking about-ty Scotty; a well done episode
Lady in TX
Top notch video Scotty! I'm 77yrs and my Father was born in Fifeshire, Scotland in 1899. My Grandad & he owned a garage which they developed from Grandad's Blacksmith business. They were both natural engineers and as a Design Engineer & DIYer myself I was in awe of their design of a trailer, of which they made about a dozen of for the local farmers around the small Fifeshire village. I'm very proud of our Scottish (not Scotch BTW, that's something else! :) inventiveness and I still have a Postcard promoting John Dunlop's products, from early 1900s, which my Dad left. There was nothing Dad didn't know about servicing the model T Ford and he marvelled, at the time, about the thin components they used for the crankshaft etc as I think the USA metallurgy was ahead of ours then. Of course, we're ahead now! 🤪
Key Pup the good, even great, work Scotty! What the hell are we going to do when you're gone?
NoAxe
That was amazing! Answered a lot of questions I had about tires. Thank you!
Well done. Clear, concise, everything you need to know and no editorial commentary.
I was expecting to hear more about the specific tire pictured and why it would last forever, though.
This was one of your best, most useful videos ever! Not that all your videos aren't useful; they very much are.
Can't express enough, how much you're appreciated. Many thanks.
Love the new video format and style. It's perfect. I love the way you explain the facts in this video compared to your older ones. It's much easier to understand as your communication is better here. Love it. Keep your future videos like this. It's better.
I love these documentaries! Keep them coming!
Thanks so much for this Scotty. I can just pass this video along instead of re-explaining it all to friends and family all the time.
Scotty, I bet you’re Really glad you Headed to Nashville. Perfect Timing!
This was one of the best videos you have ever made! Thanks for all the info!
I've been watching your videos off and on for a long time, always entertaining and good advice for many car related topics. Thank you Scotty.
Great video as always Scotty. You have a great way of explaining things in simple terms that everyone can understand.
The best video explaining all about tyres that I have ever seen! 😮
Another great go-to video with great graphics! I’ll never understand the aspect ratio of tires, nor their importance, but I DO know two things - the 13” OEM tires for my old Suzuki Swift/Geo Metro aren’t widely manufactured anymore, but those skinny little tires (with the car’s short wheelbase) would make that vehicle just chew through snow here in CT!!!
(I didn’t have the heart to tell my little Suzuki that she wasn’t a 4WD truck! LOL She was AWESOME in snow and ice!)
I never thought I'd hear a reserved Scotty. Great work.
Yeah what gives, did Scotty quit the amphetamines?
You definitely deserve every cent you make from the production and viewing of your posts. There's not a better Channel in all of TH-cam, regarding vehicle maintenance, upkeep and ownership.
Since the winter temp in So Cal rarely gets below 45, looks like I need to get Summertime tires... Thanks Scotty, looks like a quieter & smoother ride, and longer tread life !!
I remember the first time I got a new set of tires. Brand new set of Continental all-seasons. I'll never forget how my car all of a sudden felt lighter and shifted better. Great tires are totally worth it.
Which ones
huh??
@@Rainbowclaw he means what tires did he get
I bet they didn't last cause they're soft, I had them ,had to replace them after 2years, good riding but wears very fast@
@robertmaimone8733 You realize that continental makes more than 1 all season tire? Without the op stating which tire he had comparing whichever one you had to theirs is pointless.
Also, 2 years? I've never heard of any tire manufacturer saying "our tires last x amount of years". They go by miles. 🤦♂️🤣
Scotty avoided the TX disaster.
Didn't realize how little I knew about tires. Thanks for the information Scotty.
Thank you Scotty..I learn more from you in one video,than I did in four years of college..and I'm talking about almost forty years ago..great job..love your videos! 🙏😎
Every customer needs to watch this, good lord he explains it so well.
He never did tell us what tire would last forever
hello 👋 are you open to opportunities aside your field of work?
@@000009999912345 hello 👋 are you open to opportunities aside your field of work?
Would love to see more educational videos like this from you Scotty. 👍
I picked up some snow tires that Cooper came out with last year and they've been excellent. Quite a bit cheaper than other winter tires too. With this winter, I'm really glad I got them.
I really didn’t know much about tires but now I do and I can say that know. Thanks Scotty!!
I am a single mother and this helps me sooooooo much! I just came across your channel and it is a blessing to me because I understand what you are saying. Most men do not break information down
about vehicles as you do. This is refreshing! I’m going to tell every woman I know about your channel to educate themselves by someone who gives honest information that is easy to understand; and that being YOU! 🙏🏾God bless you!

😂 Good one.
Love the fact that this video is available in 4K. Gotta love quality. 👍👌🤙
Scotty how do you do it? You go into everything. You specifically say check your air compressor for each are different. What I mean is you dumb it down. Making it easy for everyone to understand. I would normally get impatient or frustrated but it's not the case. And it's great seeing someone talk with there hands I do that too. idk why; but I seem to fallow and understand more when watching someone doing the same. I've watched many episodes and all the subscribers I have. Your channel has the most hour's watch by me. Vary informational and i appreciate your honesty and not being bought from any company. Thank you Scotty!!!!!!
This is so informative, thanks boss
Hi Scott, did you really mean we should inflate 4 psi more than what recommended from the manufacturer manual? If yes could you please explain.
I imagined Scotty explaining all of this with his hands 🙌🏼
Lol! No fly's or mosquitos around Scotty!
@@christophersantrizos1657 if you tie his hands he couldn't talk

Hey Scotty love these video. I love turning wrench on my vehicles and my son is getting old enough now to go from hold the flash light to turning the wrenches and we both love your channel.
Nice job! This video kept me watching with no skips! You should make more videos like these! 👍🏼
I was just told I need new tires lol
Good timing Scotty
Great graphics, you are doing great.
Your knowledge is being complemented by the graphics.
Bravo...
hello 👋 are you open to opportunities aside your field of work?
Being from Akron and being a tire Industrial Engineer let me say - BRAVO! I found this to be one of your best ever vids. We always pronounced the name Seiberling with a hard I sound as in Budweiser for example. Or Geiser. Anyhow great video!
As usual, Scotty answered a lot of my questions. Thank you sir
Great video on tires. I use Micheline
Climate 2 all year round for
Light city driving. RE: Toronto.
I too am in Toronto. U find those perform well in the snow? Like that crazy insane (nothing like the US just had tho) storm we had last winter?
Reasonable to use those in Toronto. However, places like Ottawa or Montreal get more snow and winter tires provide better stopping distance.
The CC2s are great, but winters are better still.
Winter tires are always better in snow and cold but.....the cross climate 2 is amazing. If you don't already own winter tires and cross climate 2 fits your vehicle they are definitely the all season tire to buy in Canada.
I can't thank scotty enough for teaching us everything he knows ❤️
Yes, this guy knows so much about the whole car it is incredible! thanks.
"These Tires Will Last Forever": I'm not willing to watch it again, but I missed your addressing this on the first time through.
Same here. Buying tires today and I still don’t have the info I need.
First time?…
Me, too.
Me 3
Me 4! C'mon Scotty!
Love the stock footage of the guy putting his hand directly on the air compressor, good luck doing that after using it....
Good vid. Being a retired Industrial Engineer from BF Goodrich in Akron, I give you an A+. Goodrich sued Goodyear early on for name infringement. Since Charles Goodyear never ever worked for Goodyear, Goodrich claimed they were simply naming their company similar to Goodrich to make people get confused and buy Goodyear tires believing they were made by Goodrich - which was an established name and, at that time, a much larger and better known company. Goodrich lost that legal fight but did years later launch an advertising campaign with their “We’re the other guys” line. Remember the kids looking up saying “look, it’s the Goodrich blimp!”
This is one of your best informational videos, all drivers should view this one.
I make the fabric that goes inside these tires! It’s really high quality stuff, it essentially doubles the strength of the rubber and it’s support helps keep the tire evenly balanced
So what would you recommend for a SUV? Thank you
Scotty, once again giving 100 % sound advise and passing his vast knowledge to the huddled masses. Thanks Scotty 👍
Scotty thank you for doing these videos. All of them! I always come away from it knowing more. You are really good at this!
Love This Format. Love the history education you are putting in these videos.
I've been following you for a couple years now, and your content and knowledge is always quality. Thanks Scotty. God Bless.
Scotty. Thank you. You Rock! I actually found out today I need tires
Thank you Scotty, the most under rate component in a vehicle.
Thanks Scotty, best tire explanation I've seen
Scotty, I've been doing my own and friend's car repairs for over 60 years and I LOVE your candid, honest and RIGHT ON videos. Too bad more auto mechanics aren't as honest as you. I see friends, especially female friends, ripped off so often by unscrupulous guys. You have my respect. Big AL
Its a damn shame how these animals call themselves men
I finally went and purchased winter tires for a few months of the year. So glad I did. Snow and I’m able to drive through it and not just spin my wheels
Where do you live
@@pillcosby3949 Washington
Amazing
Excellent work on this video. As someone who lives in a colder climate I've always wanted to have winter and summer tires but.... jeez the expense of 4 tires and wheels, and then you've got to have a place to store them when not in use, and then you have to pay your mechanic to change them twice a year (unless your young enough to DIY it). I guess I just live with the compromise.
BRILLIANT tyre video Scotty thank you. Lovely combination of history and very clear information. GREAT.
One of the best explanations I have seen on the manufacture and labeling of tires, but “These tires will last forever” ? Hmm, missed that part.
Thanks for keeping the layman informed!
You just covered my whole test in one video thank you !
One of your best videos of all time! Thanks Scotty
Amazing job, Scotty!
Tires 101 - 111 in under 11 minutes !!!
Great history lesson and all the needs to know about tires in one short video! Very pleasant video class!
Thank you, Scotty once again, for do what you do and sharing your auto love with millions around globe!
We, the regular folk that can't afford to buy a new car period ( forget about buying new model every year without hitting national lottery! ) do love your videos and learn a whole bunch about cars!
P.S. To bully lawyers of big car companies: is there consciousness involved in being a$$ holes?
In case no one mentioned it yet, the tire at the very beginning of the video is the Pirelli Winter Cinturato, made in Russia and it got me thorough a blizzard a few years back. It morphs into an all-season tire as the tread wears down, with the tread indication "No Snow" after about 12,000 miles. These tires are a necessity in winter here in the North East.
Great info, thanks, at first glance i thought they were the Michilin crossclimate2, weird tire but seems ok, the best car snow tire i've ever had was the Nokian Hakapolita's (sp?), until the changed their design
Made in russia? No, thank you!👎
I prefer Bridgestone Blizzaks in Wisconsin.
Always enjoy and appreciate your auto history vids! KUDOS!
* ANOTHER WINNER VIDEO SCOTTY ~ THANK YOU ! *
I'VE BEEN TELLING PEOPLE ABOUT TIRES FOR MY WHOLE LIFE...
NOW I HAVE YOUR VIDEO TO PROVE that I WAS CORRECT !
THANK YOU AGAIN !
Here is one reason why your videos get so many views. It's because they provide valuable useful information that you can apply to your vehicle on a daily basis. Thank you very much Scotty.🥰
God Bless Texas!
Good move going to Tennessee, eh Scotty?
WOW! Hopefully, the cold will lift soon.
Scotty moved to Tennessee because he wanted to try out some snow tires. Little did he know he could have stayed in Texas.
Thanks Scotty! Another great show today!
I'll never get tired of watching this.
Scotty you are the best , wish all mechanics were like you
there is only one Scotty that's all we need
workout is all we need
Good info & advice... Also, to limit excessive wear on both tires & steering components, avoid 'turning on a dead steer' -turning the steering wheel when vehicle is stationary.
Someone told me that years ago. I think of him every time I turn a dead steer. Good advice.
These informational videos really do help. Thanks.
Great explanation. I bought Michelin tires with this tread design. So far, in rain and dry warm conditions I'm very satisfied. I'm waiting for winter, cold, snow, etc to see how they perform. I have very high expectations.
What’s up Scotty! Another night of well below freezing here in Houston, this weather has been crazy. Have good one sir.
evening and stay warm!
How are yall fairing down there? Wisconsin just exited a polar vortex with wind temps pushing almost -40 below lol. Are you and yours okay and safe?
@@ctznsoldier_gaming where fine, definitely nothing that cold! But then agin we had -1/-5 wind chill which is insane for down here. Things are getting better though temperature picking back up through the weekend, where all well now thanks for asking, hope y’all heat up soon. -40 is no joke
@@scottykilmer You as well sir.
Here in south Florida we have a different “four seasons” we have pre summer, early summer, summer and late summer. PS: I love all four!
@Randall Mellott we are moving to Mission, Texas soon. Same seasons as Palm Beach but a little hotter in the day and cooler at night with about a third as much rain.
Best tire documentary I have seen....Nice job, Scotty!
Love these type of videos. 🙌 Keep them coming Scotty.
Nice vid Scotty.
In eleven minutes a person can learn almost all there is to know/care about tires.
Except which tires last forever.
Except which ones last forever
This tiring history lesson exhausted me. Great video Scotty!
Are you too tired like a motorcycle??
Is you head spinning (like a tyre)? Did it leave you a little deflated? Maybe you need to tread more carefully in future. 😂
I’ll show myself out!
Wow that’s a lot of good information! Thank you Scotty!
What a great video. I actually learned quite a bit - THANKS !
This video made me tired?!! Haha! Great job Scotty!
Ouch
Hey Mr. Kilmer! I love your content. Always informative and respectful. Doesn’t hurt to mention that I’m a former Texan from close to the same Houston area as yourself. I currently drive a 2015 Ram. V6, reg cab 4x4. I put a set of BF Goodrich TA ko 2 on her. I’m Currently in west KY close to the land between the lakes. As you know, we got a ton of snow and ice. These tires along with the 4x4 capabilities of my Ram are amazing. I have no trouble with stop line acceleration, turning, or flat out stopping. The truck goes where I want it to. I only break traction when I want to. I just want to say that if you have a 4x4 and live in any area that has adverse weather conditions, the TA KO 2 tire is the way to go. Amazing grip and performance. Even in summer driving. Keep up the great work. From one Texan to another, yeehaw.
Thank you. I am gonna start working at Mich Tire in a few days. This was informative.
You really do a great job on these informational bits.
That's why Good year s are still on top my favorite after Michs
Added note from the end during tire pressure bit: if you are either racing or going to be continually driving on a highway for long periods of time in weather above 90 degrees, be sure to let out a little air actually, especially close to the engine. The friction from the road and ambient engine temperature causes heat buildup and increases tire pressure, and the tire can pop in those conditions. I see blown tires constantly here in the SoCal desert in Barstow in the summer due to over-inflated tires or properly inflated tires driven too long. It regularly hits above 110 degrees Fahrenheit here in the summer, and in August can go to around 115-120 highs and 85 degree lows for close to a week straight. Much of the people I've helped have tried to go from Los Angeles areas to Las Vegas or Needles or vice versa nonstop, except stopping for gas in Barstow. NOT a good idea actually to do that nonstop.
I usually just bring an extra set.
Very good refresher on tire types and maintenance. I have to get a tire air compressor, you're motivating me to get one.
That's a great video! Thank you Mr. Kilmer!
Might have been a good idea to talk about UTQG, Temperature & Traction ratings. Example: 720 A B
It's important when comparing tires.
Those ratings are almost meaningless. Each company rates their own tires, and there's no set standard that everyone uses. Back in the 80's, when people started reading things like Consumer Reports, customers started looking at these numbers and the tire companies kept re-rating the same exact tire with higher and higher treadwear numbers. Those numbers really don't count for much.
@@solarfall2728 Partially correct ... manufacturers do indeed assign their own ratings. However, they do so under the guidance of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) who establishes the Uniform Tire Quality Grading Standards in 49 CFR 575.104. The NHTSA has the right to inspect the tire manufacturer's data and can fine them if inconsistencies are found.
@@tacocin I'm not partially correct. I'm 100% correct. Those numbers are a scam. I've seen with my own eyes the same exact tire get re-rated every year or so to keep up with other companies. Its fairly well documented. The laws aren't too specific. That's how they get away with it. Its been going on for decades.
@@solarfall2728
The reason they get re-rated is from the change in construction. They may look the same to your eyes but different in the makeup.
NHTSA does a good job at holding tire companies liable for mislabeled ratings.
They could and have lost millions from liabilities.
@@boobtubeakatv1296 You're wrong. I'm not guessing. What I'm telling you is a fact. You can check for yourself, and believe what you wish. But regardless of what your beliefs are, the exact same tires were re-rated. Check for yourself.
Im a salemen for a very Large tire company, n I honestly love this Video, I wish we could use this video during training. By far the most informative tire video Ive ever seen, Keep up the Great work.
As a tire salesman, can you tell me why big car companies (I have a VW GLI, which is probably a great-handling car, I don't know--, but on the OEM Hankook tires, it's a terror!) put junk OEM tires on their sporty cars year after year--even as heaps onf byers complain about how dangerous the tires are on their car? I won't buy any brand of car that does that ever again!!!
Well done. Simple easy to understand thorough explanation.
I just love videos about stuff I thought I didn't really need to know until I found out all I needed to know about them.
