Tires FAQ
What Is Tire Safety?
Tire safety pertains to anything having to do with your tires' health, from their pressure to their tread wear to their weight distribution. With regular checks and a recommended maintenance schedule, you can get the most out of your tires, optimize their lifespan, keep your tire expenses to a minimum, and of course, maintain your safety at the wheel.
How Do I Know If My Tires Are Safe?
Keeping your tires safe begins with keeping tabs on their pressure. We strongly suggest erring on the side of caution with monthly pressure checks, and remember to gauge your pressure if you're about to embark on a longer trip. Beyond that, regularly scheduled services like tire rotation, balancing, and seasonal tire changes all go a long way to keeping your tires healthy.
What Are Tire Tips?
Firstly, it's best to equip your car with the recommended tire brand and size. Our Parts Centre staff can fill you in on those particulars, and we also suggest keeping a tire pressure gauge handy for your monthly checks. It's wise to keep an eye on your treads as well, and if you notice uneven wear on your rubber, it's time to book a tire rotation service with our staff. One tire rotation service for every 10,000 km should suffice for most models, and we can also check your wheel alignment on your next visit, as it can tarnish both performance and safety if it's askew. We can balance out your tires for even weight distribution as well, and lastly, remember to drive carefully in difficult conditions and watch for any cracks or bulges in your tires.
