With features like blind spot monitoring, lane-keeping, forward collision warning, etc., it's easy to overlook the tires. They don't make noises or provide semi-autonomous tricks, but they're an important component for making sure you stop safely and in a timely fashion when you're on the highway or driving around Swansea. Here's some important information about tire rotations, tire care, and tire changes.
Tire treads are deep, especially on winter and snow tires, but over time they start to wear down as you commute time and time again from your Raynham home. To help them last longer, you'll want to make sure you get your tires rotated at our dealership. This helps them wear evenly and extend the length of ownership. This is especially important for all-season and summers tires that you use most of the time. For winter tires (and that includes studded tires) you probably don't need as frequent of tire rotations.
Even with regular rotations, you'll still need to get a new set of tires at some point. If you're looking for tire change service near you, stop into our Dartmouth service center. We can verify that your tire tread indicator is showing and get a new set of tires on. That way whether it's winter, summer, or raining out, you'll be able to drive around Bourne and beyond with confidence.
You probably prefer to come into our service center for the tire rotations and changes, but you can easily check your tire pressure from your driveway. Properly inflated tires provide better traction and better fuel ratings, so get in the habit of checking them once a month.
Based on your readout you'll know if you need to inflate your tires or deflate them. With tires that are overinflated, you can run the risk of getting a flat tire if you hit a curb or pothole hard.
If you're ready to take good care of these four unsung but important automotive heroes, stop into our service center and head out to the local store to buy a gauge!
