Tire change for the 1985 Dodge Lancer
For tire work on the 1985 Dodge Lancer, CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop; the work is done there, not by CarmaCars. Tread depth matters for grip in rain and snow; the shop measures it.
Your car, your notes
Tell the shop the tire size printed on the sidewall; it differs by trim. Say whether the car is drivable; it changes how it gets to the shop. The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. It is powered by the 2.2L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive.
How the request works
You approve the shop's quote before any work. We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name. You agree everything with the shop before work begins.
No car? Rent one meanwhile
Rent by the day while the shop has your car. If the repair runs long, keep the rental longer. Delivery covers the Toronto area, priced by distance in your offer; pickup from us is free.
Questions to ask the shop
Ask how long the job should take, so you know how long to rent for. Keep the invoice; it is part of the car's service history. Ask how the shop will contact you if it finds something unexpected.
Between shop visits
Replace wiper blades when they streak; it matters in rain and snow. Have the battery tested before winter if it is more than a few years old. Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance.

One request: the job, the car, and whether you need a rental meanwhile.
