Here are some frequently asked questions – and answers – about tire service:

When should I replace my tires?

When you have a blowout or a flat tire you instantly know that you need to see a service technician and purchase a replacement, but that’s not the only time that tire replacements are required. Indicators that you should have your tires replaced are:

You’ve reached the six-year mark with your current set of tires. Because the materials in tires dry out over time, most manufacturers recommend replacing them every six years.
Tread depth. If you’re tired and no longer have enough tread to provide proper stopping power, it’s time to have them replaced.

What should my tires be inspected for?

During routine maintenance, you should ask your technician to complete a tire inspection. During an inspection, your technician will check three things.

Inflation Pressure
Damage such as cuts, punctures, bulges, or cracks
Tread wear

If you or your technician notice that your tread has been worn down, or if there is any damage to your tires, you should have them repaired or replaced.

Why is tire tread depth important?

As you drive through Naples, FL, the tread on your tires is what grips the road. After the tread has been worn down your tires lose traction. This will increase the time it takes your car to stop when you apply the brakes and make driving during rain or snow more dangerous.
