| Q: |
How can I tell if the color works for my car?
What if my monitor makes things look different? |
| A: |
Just let us know what pattern(s) you are interested
in e-mail is best and we’ll send you a swatch. Make sure you include
your address. |
Q: |
Can I send my car through the car wash with my TireCandy on? |
| A: |
Of course you can. Those two grommet-holes on the bottom
will help any water drain out. |
Q: |
What if I have a big tire or a non-standard tire size. Will TireCandy
fit? |
| A: |
TireCandy comes in standard sizes of 27, 28, 29 and
30 inches in diameter. If your tire is too large or is not-standard,
we will customize your TireCandy for an additional $10. We will contact
you via e-mail to arrange payment. |
Q: |
How do I find my tire size? |
| A: |
Your tire size is in raised lettering on the sidewall
of your tire. It is a number/letter sequence that looks something
like 215 70 R16 or 30 x 10.5 R15. |
Q: |
How long will my TireCandy last? |
| A: |
The average life expectancy of this or any other vinyl
product is two to three years when exposed to outdoor conditions.
Repeated removal and replacement of TireCandy in very cold weather
will lessen your cover’s lifespan as will exposure to extreme sun.
TireCandy will wear similarly to outdoor patio furniture, but are
much more fun! |
Q: |
How can I theft-proof my TireCandy? |
| A: |
A clever TireCandy owner discovered that a small bicycle
lock through the grommet holes and around the spare tire securely
locks your TireCandy to your car. But rest assured, your TireCandy
is made to fit your spare tire. It is snug-fitting and not an easy-grab.

Q: |
Do you have black covers? |

Do you make TireCandy for RVs? |
| A: |

Q: |
How do I put my TireCandy on? |
| A: |

car and work your way up for the best fit. |
