Signs You Need Tire Services
Tires wear at different rates depending on brand, driving conditions, road hazards, and even the weather. Understanding when it's time to schedule tire services will help you stay up to date with all your tire services and ensure your vehicle is in optimum driving condition. Outside of regularly scheduled maintenance appointments, typically around every six months or 6,000 miles for Chevy models, you should contact our Service Center for tire services if you notice any of the following symptoms:
- Low Tread: Your tires appear bald, worn, or the tread is very shallow. You can perform the penny test to check for adequate tread depth.
- Uneven Tread: Some parts of your tires appear worn, while others do not. Uneven tire wear could indicate improper balance or alignment.
- Vibrating or Shaking: There could be an imbalance or other tire problem. Even old cars should not shake at the wheel.
- Visible Tire Damage: Bulges, cracks, gouges, or other visible damage should be repaired immediately.
- Loss of Tire Pressure: If you find yourself constantly refilling the tires, there may be a leak or other problem.
How to Check Tread Depth
Tread depth is important because it can significantly impact stopping power. You can check for adequate tread depth by performing the penny test. Insert a penny upside-down at various points along the tire. The tread should cover Lincoln's head and even at different points along the tire. If you notice uneven wear or there is not enough tread, it's time to schedule tire services.
Why Tire Pressure is Important
Tire pressure affects everything from handling to fuel efficiency. Over- or underfilling can increase the probability of blowouts, so it's important to check your owner's manual or the table inside the door to check the recommended PSI for your vehicle and tire type. Our team will check the tire pressure during regularly scheduled maintenance appointments, but be sure to address tire pressure if your pressure sensor goes off or you notice low tire pressure for optimum performance and safety.
