Tire Care

Proper tire care will go a long way for your vehicle’s safety and performance. Tires make direct contact on the road and handle traction alongside handling. Regular maintenance to ensure your tires are in good condition is crucial, but more comes with tire care than just ensuring you have a good set of tires.

Regular maintenance 

When you have a routine for your tire checks, you ensure your tires’ safety and longevity. A tire check includes proper inflation, rotation, and alignment. Together, this checklist can help prevent uneven wear and thrive in performance. Poor tire maintenance can lead to premature tire wear, flats, or blowouts. Inspections can avoid wear and tear throughout the year, especially regarding your tire type.

All-season Tires 

All-season tires perform well in warm, wet, and light winter conditions. These types of tires also provide a longer tread life throughout. All-season tires are good in Arkansas in summer, spring, fall, and early winter and can go against light snow and withstand temperatures as low as 40 degrees Fahrenheit. These tires often have a longer lifespan than regular tires and are more suitable for larger vehicles such as SUVs and trucks. Initially, all-season tires provide good flexibility between the seasons.

Snow Tires 

Check out winter tires if you need tires that withstand heavy snowfall and freezing temperatures. Winter tires have a more rugged design to help move snow and slush, like black ice, out of the way. These tires give you great control to handle on icy and snowy roads. Snow tires can go against temperatures 45 degrees and under. These tires are made for colder weather seasons.

Balancing and Rotation  

When you balance out your tires, the tires have evenly distributed weight between all four tires. This service goes hand in hand with tire rotations. Tire rotations ensure that there is even wear throughout every tire. You want all your tires to have the same experience to help maintain the same consistent performance. 

The best time to get your tires inspected is during a regular oil change. During that time, not only do we check your car to see if there is anything wrong, but we also check tire pressure, alignments, and any defects in the tire, like a nail in one, etc.
