Seasonal Tire Tote Review

Snow tires are necessary (mandatory in some places) for total control in winter driving. If you live anywhere that snow falls or the temp drops below 40 degrees, you NEED snow tires. All-season tires just don't work as well. But having the tires changed over at the seasonal change ( going to a garage, waiting and having a mechanic change the tires) is time consuming. I do my own maintenance, but since I don't have tire changing equipment, I still required a shop with tire change equipment.
I started buying snow tires and either bought them from Tire Rack already mounted or buying a second set of wheels and having snow tires mounted. Now, when winter ends, I just jack the car up and change tires. Problem solved, except our house isn't big enough for two sets of tires mounted to wheels to be stored in the basement, so we store them at a family members house.
This meant picking up dirty tires and wheels ( even after I scrub them before storing them) and putting them in the clean car or trunk and getting your hands and car dirty.
Thats where the Kurgo Tire Tote comes in. Made of a strong nylon material with hook and loop fasteners (Velcro) you just wrap this around the tire, fasten it and pick-up the tire with the handle. Fast and easy and no more dirty hands.

SEASONAL TIRE STORAGE BAG (STORES UP TO 4 TIRES) Review

SEASONAL TIRE STORAGE BAG (STORES UP TO 4 TIRES)

I was pretty skeptical when I first browsed over this product since tire rack's tire skirt sells for $49+shipping... However, the bag is exactly what you would want to store tires or mounted tires. The product description states that this bag is zippered, which i believe is incorrect, honestly can't find a zipper on the lower or upper half of the bag. I'm currently storing 17x7.5 inch wheels with 225/45/17 tires and all four fit without a problem, plenty of room. If you have a higher profile tires I would make check to make sure they fit within the given dimensions of the product description, 27"... If you have wider wheels, tires, or both with 4x7.5" rims there is 7" of material that overlap, my stack of tires is 35", maximum height would therefore be about 42". If you are ridiculous about sealing your tires I would duct tape the overlapping section since this product is not air tight and just uses straps. Overall impression is that for the price you simply cannot go wrong.
