The Importance of TiresTires are the only component of your vehicle that touch the rough road surfaces of Little Falls, Paterson, NJ, and wherever else you drive. They're subjected to high speeds and friction, uneven terrain, and great weight and pressure, not to mention varied weather conditions that make maintaining traction and grip harder at times. That's why it's important to put a good set of quality tires on your vehicle!
Do I Really Need to Replace My Tires?
How do you know if it's really time to replace your tires? There are tips and tricks you can follow, like the penny test, which goes like this. You put a penny upside-down in your tire tread, heads facing forward, and if you can see Lincoln's head, you need new tires. This test actually measures tread-depth, which you can get a gauge for, too. When your tires reach 2/32nds of depth, it's time to replace them.
Many people also don't know that if you're worried about wet roads, you should consider replacing your tires at 4/32nds of depth. What's more, most auto manufacturers also recommend you replace your tires after six years, even if they appear to be in good internal condition.
