Do you need new tires? We all do from time to time! Tires are one of the most important components of our vehicles. They provide traction to ensure timely stopping and keep us going on the road safely. Because they wear out faster than your other auto parts, it is important to your safety that you replace your tires in a timely fashion in order to prevent you from accidents or flat tires on your way to an important meeting. Here at Country Town Tire & Auto Service Center, it is our job to help you get the services and products you need, and that includes tires. When you shop for tires, here are a few things to keep in mind:

  • Be prepared with your tires. The best time to get new tires is right before you need them, not after an accident or when you are forced onto the side of the road because of a flat. Check the tread on your tires and when it is starting to wear down, but not worn completely, shop for tires.
  • Purchase 4 tires. Replacing one tire at a time is not a good idea for your tires or the suspension. Uneven wear is not as safe and makes maintaining your tires harder.

  • Make necessary repairs. While you are having your tires replaced, now is a good time to work on suspension or alignment repairs. This will ensure that your new tires are wearing evenly and properly.  
  • Don’t forget your spare! Your spare tire is supposed to be used in emergencies. If your spare tire is older than 10 years, it will need to be replaced even if you haven’t used it very often since rubber degrades and breaks down over time.
