Q: How often should I rotate my tires, and why is it important?Tire rotation is recommended every 6,000 to 8,000 miles or as advised by your vehicle's manufacturer. Regular tire rotation is important because it ensures even tire wear. Front and rear tires wear differently, and uneven wear can lead to reduced traction, handling issues, and a shorter tire lifespan. By rotating your tires, you maximize their longevity, improve handling, and enhance safety.
-
What's the difference between all-season and seasonal tires?All-season tires are designed for year-round use and are suitable for most driving conditions. Seasonal tires, on the other hand, are specifically engineered for particular seasons, such as winter or summer. Winter tires have better traction on snow and ice, while summer tires offer superior performance in warmer weather. The choice between them depends on your local climate and driving needs.
-
Do I need to replace all four tires at once, or can I replace just one or two?Ideally, it's best to replace all four tires at once to ensure consistent traction and handling. However, if one or two tires are significantly more worn than the others, it's acceptable to replace just those tires. It's crucial to match the new tires with the existing ones in terms of brand, model, and size to maintain balanced performance.
-
How can I tell when my tires need to be replaced?You should replace your tires when they exhibit signs of excessive wear or damage. Some indicators include worn tread depth (less than 2/32 inch), visible cracks or cuts, bulges, or punctures that cannot be repaired. Additionally, if you experience a loss of traction, longer braking distances, or noticeable vibrations, it may be time to replace your tires.
-
Can I repair a punctured tire, or do I need to replace it?Most minor punctures, such as nail holes, can be safely repaired if they are within the repairable area (usually up to 1/4 inch in diameter) and not too close to the tire's sidewall. However, it's essential to have a professional assess the damage. If the puncture is in a repairable location, a proper repair will save you the cost of a new tire.
