Tire Change and Balance:
How Safe Are Your Car Tires?
We often ignore our tires unless they’re flat. They play a vital role in the overall condition of your car. Maintain them properly, and you’ll save money on repairs and on fuel costs.
Keeping your tires properly inflated ensures that they wear longer and can prevent accidents and emergency tire service. The right amount of air your tires need is specified here.
If your tires are overloaded or under-inflated, serious accidents can happen. One of my tires blew-out on me and caused an accident.
Buy your own quality tire gauge. You can’t tell if tires are inflated properly just by looking. And the air meters at your service station may not be correct! For real assurance about your tire gauge, remember to contact wheel and tire stores near you or call B and N Auto care today at 615-454-3965 or 615-964-0408.
You can also find tire places that are opened near you or ask your auto supply dealer for a tire gauge calibrated up to 80 PSI. They’ll know what you mean, even if you don’t.
Take a moment at the beginning of each month to check your tire pressure (don’t forget the spare! Uhm, you do have a spare tire, don’t you ?) Check them before you get in the car to drive.
Now inflate the tires to a level that equals the warm pressure (that you just took) plus the first under-inflation amount. (called the “cold” inflation pressure).
If the above instructions sound confusing or intimidating, take your car to a shop and give them the “cold” pressure numbers. They’ll put the correct amount of air in your tires for a minimum fee– Call B and N Auto care today at 615-454-3965 or 615-964-0408 for details.
The leading cause of tire failure is under-inflation. You can prevent tire failure by requesting tire mounting near you. Further, Make a habit to check them once a month.
Overloading your vehicle can lead to tire failure, too. Just because you have a pick-up truck doesn’t mean it can carry an infinite load. If you experience flat tire do not hesitate to roadside tire service at 615-686-6344 or visit Abeltowing.net
