Tire Safety Tips - Follow these simple services and keep your tires safe on your Car, Truck, or SUV.

Inflation
Pressure is the most essential part of tire maintenance.

Check inflation regularly.
Carry a reliable pressure gauge.
Increase air pressure when carrying extra weight.

Alignment
The minimal cost of an alignment will more than pay for itself in tire performance and mileage.

Check all 4 tires routinely for signs of uneven wear.
A change in handling or steering can indicate an alignment is needed.
Professional evaluation and equipment is necessary for a correct alignment.

Rotation
Regular rotation will insure even wear on all 4 tires.

Rotate tires every 6,000 to 8,000 miles.
Do not use 'temporary use only" spares when rotating. A regular spare tire can be used.
Have a technician check for any mechanical problems before rotation.
