The Importance of Tire Maintenance

The performance and safety of your car are largely dependent on your tyres. Here's how to make sure they go above and beyond

The performance and safety of your car are largely dependent on your tyres. Here's how to make sure they go above and beyond:

1. Keep Them Inflated: Make sure your tyres are inflated to the recommended level for your car by checking the pressure every month. Even wear and maximum fuel economy are guaranteed by proper inflation.

2. Rotate Frequently: To encourage uniform wear on all four tyres, rotate your tyres every 6,000 to 8,000 miles. As a result, they live longer and continue to function normally.

3. Align for Precision: Maintaining proper wheel alignment reduces uneven wear and improves handling by ensuring your tyres make consistent contact with the road. It's time for an alignment check if you observe uneven tread wear or steering problems.
 
4. Inspect and Protect: Check your tyres frequently for evidence of damage, wear, or shallow tread. To measure the depth of tread, use the penny test, and change tyres when the tread reaches 2/32 of an inch. Additionally, avoid using harsh chemicals and park in shady places to protect them from environmental harm.

You can improve performance and safety on the road in addition to prolonging the life of your tyres by according to these tyre care recommendations. For many miles to come, enjoy a smoother and safer driving experience by giving tyre care first attention.
