New Tires in Hamburg, PA

Why Do I Need New Tires?

Unsure why investing in new tires is a worthwhile investment? Even though tires can be costly depending on the vehicle, they are almost always a worthwhile investment. Making the switch from old, worn-out tires to new tires provides several benefits, the most important of which is safety. New tires improve your car's braking power as well as its turning capability, lowering the likelihood of a crash on slick or uneven roads. New tires also benefit your car or truck by improving overall performance and fuel economy; uneven or worn-out tires force your vehicle to work harder, which reduces fuel efficiency.

How Frequently Do I Need to Assess Tire Pressure and Tread Depth?

All tires will gradually lose pressure over time, in both warm and cold weather months, thus you should regularly check your car's tire pressure. There are other factors besides the weather that contribute to pressure drops. Air pressure will gradually drop as a result of elevation changes, bending, and contacts with tire walls. The best way to maintain your tires is to check the pressure on each subsequent trip to the gas station. To increase the lifespan of your tires, you should rotate them every other time you change your oil and check the tread depth at each oil change. Rotating your tires every 6 to 8 thousand miles will help you maintain even tread wear over the life of the tire.
