Your Tires, Your Safety

When you drive, the condition of your vehicle's tires is somewhat synonymous with your safety. The reality is that bad tires put you at an increased risk for an accident--a blowout, loss of traction and skid, or inability to stop quickly. Therefore, it's best practice to keep up with tire maintenance services. Fortunately, King's Auto Service in Raleigh, North Carolina, can help you with tires. Our experienced staff takes care of all domestic and Asian models, even hybrids and electric automobiles.

Tire Maintenance

While tires are a significant factor in travel safety, they can also be expensive. A good way to balance the two sides of the coin is through tire maintenance. This allows you to safely use your tires for the maximum amount of time possible, protecting your investment. Our team is here to help you with that. First, you should operate your automobile with the tires at the manufacturer's recommended inflation as expressed in pounds per square inch or psi. Over inflation causes the center of the tread pattern to wear too quickly, and under inflation can overheat the meeting point of the tread and sidewall, potentially leading to a blowout. Tread depth should be gauged regularly also. Once the depth dips below 2/32" at a minimum, the tires should be replaced. Additionally, it's important to rotate and balance your tires as recommended by the manufacturer. This allows for more even wear of the set, increasing the life of the tires. Finally, take care of necessary repairs, too, such as wheel alignments and suspension work. These related issues can also greatly impact the condition and life of your treads
