New Tires: There is a tire shop at every corner, how do you determine what is best for your vehicle?

New tires almost always come with a warranty, but make sure you check how many miles the warranty is good for. Also check if you must use the warranty at that specific location or, if it’s valid for all locations.

Most new tire resellers offer a wide range of options but sometimes what you’re looking for may not be in stock. A tire shop associate can order your desired tire straight from the manufacturer.

1.Check treading on the tire. Ensure the tire is not completely worn.

2.If you’re buying all 4 tires, make sure they are the right size.

3.Check the numbers on the tires to ensure the tire is not expired.

4.Research the brand and read reviews.

Keep your tires rotated: Rotating your tires when you go in for a oil change is standard practice. Maintaining rotations can improve your vehicles performance. This is also a great opportunity to check your tires to ensure they are in top notch shape.

Check your tire pressure, threading, and any possible holes/leaks. Checking your tires regularly can help avoid flat tires in the future.

Tire Alignments:

When purchasing tires of any kind, it is critical to make sure you get your tires aligned. Aligning tires prevents shaking at high speeds and improves your overall driving experience.

It is recommended to align your tires at the same time your tires are being serviced or rotated for maximum results.

Know your tire size: Servicing your tires may require that you know and understand your tire size. Tires come in a variety of sizes and purposes. It is helpful to know what you’re looking for when shopping around.
