While driving, have you experienced a momentary loss of tire traction? If you ever lose confidence in your tires or experience any of the following issues, don't hesitate to have your tires replaced at your local Ford dealership. Here are five good reasons to get new tires for your car. 5 Signs Your Ford Needs New Tires Shallow Tread Depths The treads of car tires gradually wear down over time until they're too shallow to grip wet road surfaces firmly. Tire treads need sufficient depth in the voids to displace water and prevent hydroplaning, especially during the wetter, colder months of winter. The minimum safe tread depth for tires is usually 2/32 of an inch. It's a good idea to measure your tire treads frequently and replace a tire when the tread depth nears 2/32 of an inch. more Damaged Tire Rubber If your tires are damaged in any way, ask a technician to take a look. A puncture or cut can sometimes be repaired, briefly extending the tire's lifespan. However, most cut or punctured tires need to go. External bulges in the tire rubber indicate internal damage that also makes the tire unsafe to use. Spreading Sidewall Cracks As your car tires age, you may become used to seeing tiny hairline cracks in the sidewalls. These cracks result from the moisture in the tire rubber drying out from exposure to UV rays in sunlight and are initially harmless. However, if the sidewall cracks start to spread and deepen, you'll eventually need to have the tire replaced. Steady Loss of Air Pressure As every safety-conscious driver knows, tire air pressure should always be kept at precisely the recommended PSI. If the pressure in any of your tires keeps diminishing, have the tire inspected by a technician. There might be a hidden puncture or some other flaw that would spell the end for the tire. More Vibrations Than Usual When tires become damaged or overly uneven, you may notice an increase in vibrations and road noise. Never ignore any sense that your car is becoming louder and rougher. Ask a technician to check and perhaps replace your tires. Rotate Tires Often at Your Ford Dealership Uneven wear is another potential reason to replace car tires. You can keep tires uniform in size with regular rotations at your local dealership. It's generally recommended to rotate tires twice a year. This also gives the technicians a chance to inspect each tire for signs of damage or excessive wear and tear. Have your car's tires replaced today at Imlay City Ford in Imlay City, MI. We're a locally trusted dealership that serves as a one-stop shop for all your automotive needs, whatever they may be.
