Tires

Tires are the only contact your vehicle has to the road. They are rubber and doughnut-shaped which provide grip for steering, braking and acceleration and are filled with compressed air to provide traction between the road and your vehicle. While on the road, the tires absorb shock to help you prevent hydroplaning on wet roads and alter your vehicle's performance.

What can go wrong?

Due to regular wear and tear, potholes and ignored maintenance, a flat or blowout may occur, potentially leaving you stranded. Slow leaks within the tire's rim may also be apparent which can lead to excessive damage and costly repairs.

What can you do?

Check your owner's manual to ensure you're using the proper tire size for your vehicle as well as the appropriate tire pressure. If any tire seems visibly lower than normal, you may need to add air to the proper PSI (pounds per square inch). Check all tire pressures weekly, including the spare to ensure none are over or under-inflated. Be aware of continuous leaks and seek attention from a trained professional to get it repaired before more damage occurs.
