Four Signs It’s Time to Visit a Tire Shop

Four Signs It’s Time to Visit a Tire Shop

Worn-out tires not only pose a safety hazard, but they also reduce the performance of your car. Knowing when you need a tire change isn’t complicated. If you notice any of the following signs, visit our tire shop as soon as possible.
  1. Bulging tires. One sign of worn-out tires is the presence of bulges on the sides. These weak spots can easily blow out, leading to accidents.
  2. Tread depth. If the treads on your tires fall below 1.6 millimeters in depth, you need to visit a tire shop. A good way to test this is to put a penny upside down in the tread. If you can still see Lincoln’s head, you need new tires.
  3. Excess vibration. Minimal vibration is unavoidable if you drive on a poorly paved road. But if your car vibrates on even surfaces, your tires should be inspected. When you visit our tire shop, our ASE-certified mechanics will inspect your car to identify the cause of the vibration.
  4. 10 years maximum. It’s important to note that tires wear out even if you don’t drive your car often. Regardless of the number of miles on your tires, you should plan on replacing them if they are more than 10 years old.
Call us today if you are looking for a tire shop in Hickory, North Carolina. Our knowledgeable staff will replace your old tires with top-quality ones from brands such as BFGoodrich, Michelin, El Dorado, Bridgestone, Maxxis, Firestone, Cooper, Goodyear, Bridgestone, Hercules, Sumitomo, Pit Bull, Nitto, or Kumho.
