Check the air pressure in your tires at least once a month.
Make
sure you use an accurate tire gauge and measure the air pressure when the
tires are cold. We recommend 32 lb. for most cars, and 40 lb. for light
trucks. Over inflation is one of the major reasons for early tire wear.
Check for any deep cuts or bruises on the side wall of the tire. This may
be an indication of an impending blow-out. Look for worn out tires. This
can be done by looking for the Treadwear Indicators that run at a 90 degree
angle to the tread itself. When the tread and the TWI are equal in depth,
it's time to replace your tires. Come in for a free alignment check and
make sure to rotate your tires every 8,000 miles for even tire wear.
