If you're having to put air in your tires frequently then your tires probably need replacing. Also if the tread on the tires is worn down they should be replaced (a symptom of worn tread is the tires squealing on the road for no apparent reason).

There are numerous considerations you need to put into choosing tires for your vehicle. First of all, you need to know your expected needs for your tires and your driving usages. Find a good store that you can trust, and that is very brilliant in what they do, and will give you good advice on what tires you will need.
