How often should I rotate my tires?

Tires should be rotated every 5,000 to 8,000 miles or every 6 months, whichever comes first. This helps ensure even wear and extends tire life.

What is the proper tire pressure for my vehicle?

Check your vehicle's owner's manual or the tire information placard on the driver's side door jamb for the recommended tire pressure. This is usually between 30-35 PSI for most passenger vehicles.

When should I replace my winter tires?

Winter tires should be replaced when the tread depth reaches 4/32 of an inch or when they are 6 years old, whichever comes first. Regular inspection is important for safety.

How do I know if my tires need to be replaced?

Look for signs like uneven wear, cracks in the sidewall, bulges, or when tread depth is below 2/32 of an inch. If you notice any of these signs, have your tires inspected immediately.
