Signs That the Tires Need to be Inspected

Having safe and reliable tires is important for the safety for you and those around you. Checking the condition of the tires should be done regularly to help make sure they are as efficient as possible. If you notice significant damage to the tires, look to get a new set put on as soon as possible. Worn or unbalanced tires can impact the performance and handling of the vehicle when you drive. Also, tires with little to no tread can also cause issues on the road. Along with checking the tread, you can check the tread indicator bar. This can also help to assist you when the tires are low on tread. Also make sure to check the sidewalls of the tires for any cracks. If the tires are in poor condition, it can result in them going flat or blowing out. If you ever notice anything out of the norm with the tires, or any damage, make sure to bring the vehicle in as soon as you can. We can help locate the issue and advise you on the options that are best suited for the vehicle.

Check the Condition of the Tires

If there is any sidewall cracks on the tires that are visible, bring the vehicle in as soon as you can. Cracks on the sidewall can be dangerous if they are ignored. This is because the pressure can cause the side to blow out. It can also result in a loss of control of the vehicle, which is a safety issue. When inspecting the tires, always make sure to check for cracks or other defects along the sidewall.

Not Enough Tread on the Tires

Noticing the tires have low tread depth can be a safety issue. The tread of the tire is what grips the road and keeps the vehicle stable as you drive. A lack of tread can cause the vehicle to slide to one side or another when traveling. The tread should be checked regularly so you are aware when it is starting to wear. We can also check the tread on the tires to make sure they are as reliable and efficient as they can be.

Tires that are Excessively Worn

If you notice the tires are wearing excessively, be sure to bring the vehicle in. This could be a sign that the tires are not balanced or aligned properly. It could also mean the tires need to be rotated. There could be an issue with the tires if you feel vibrations or bumps while driving. Tires can be worn as well if your driving habits change or if you slam on the brakes frequently.

If you notice an issue with the tires, bring the vehicle in

While inspecting the tires, make sure to look for any bald spots on them. Bald spots can affect the performance, handling, and safety of the vehicle. The tires wearing unevenly cause bald spots on them. If the tread has become worn, a bald spot may occur on the tires. Make sure to bring the vehicle in and we can help to advise you on what your options are to resolve the issue.
