As fall approaches, it’s important to prepare your car, especially your Tires! Tires are your car’s only contact with the road, so keeping them in good shape is essential for safety and performance.
Check Your Tire Tread
Tire Tread grips the road, and worn tread can be dangerous, especially on wet or slippery surfaces. Use the penny test to check your tread! Insert a penny into the tread with Lincoln’s head upside down. If you can see the top of his head, it’s time for new tires!!!
Maintain Tire Pressure
Cooler temperatures can lower Tire Pressure, leading to poor handling and reduced fuel efficiency. Regularly check your Tire Pressure and keep it at the manufacturer’s recommended level.
Rotate and Align Your Tires
Rotating your Tires every 5,000 to 7,000 miles ensures even wear, extending their life. If your car pulls to one side, you may need an Alignment to prevent uneven wear and improve handling.
Consider Replacing Old Tires
If your Tires are old or worn, consider replacing them before fall. New Tires offer better traction and safety as the weather changes.
Proper tire care is crucial as fall approaches. By checking tread, maintaining pressure, rotating and aligning, and considering replacements, you’ll keep your car safe and ready for the road!
