When Should You Get New Tires? 

Tires are one of the most important parts of vehicle maintenance and upkeep. They provide proper road traction, handling, and help maintain the operational safety of every motor vehicle. But how do you tell when you need to begin shopping for a  new set of tires? There are a few key things to look out for and check before buying a new set of tires. 

Below are a few simple steps to help you inspect your tires and determine if they need to be replaced:

  • Check The Depth of Your Tire Tread - The depth of your tire tread is one of the first things you should inspect when trying to determine if you need a new set of tires. The good news is there is a simple and effective way to test your tires tread level with nothing but a penny. Place the penny between the tread head first meaning Lincoln's head should be in the tread. If you can see all of Lincoln's head you definitely need new tires. If part of his head is covered by the tread your tires are still in great shape and you can wait to replace them.
  • Inspect your tires for Signs of Damage and Wear - If you notice any kind of cracks, discoloration, or bulges on the sides of your tires it's a good idea to begin shopping for a new set of tires. These can be caused by a number of every day factors such as excessive temperatures, over inflation, and normal wear and tear.
  • How Old Are Your Tires - Tire age is also a factor to consider especially if your vehicle is not driven regularly. Most manufactures will recommend that you have your tires replaced every six years but we recommend about every ten years.
  • Your Dashboard Tire Light Comes On - If your tire warning light comes on it means that one ore more of your tires has low pressure. While most of the time it means you probably just need a bit of air, it can also mean that you have a hole or leak in a tire. It is better to replace all tires at once if possible even if there is something wrong with only one tire because it can lead to other issues such as uneven tread wear which can cost even more money down the line.
