Checking your tires on a regular basis is critical and can help you stay safe on the road. Additionally, proper maintenance of your tires can improve your gas mileage, prevent unwanted accidents and maintain proper steering. Consider the following tips to help maintain your tires: 
-
Rotate your tires every 5,000 to 7,000 miles—This practice will ensure that your tires wear evenly.
-
Check your tire pressure once a month—Underinflated tires can lead to tire stress, irregular wear and car accidents. The right amount of air pressure needed for your tires can be found in your owner’s manual.
-
Check your tire tread depth regularly—Tread is what gives your vehicle the traction it needs to stop and hold the road on curves. One way to check your tread depth is by conducting the penny test. Place a penny upside down with Lincoln facing you in the center of the tread. If you can see the top of Lincoln’s head, it’s time to replace your tires.
By taking the time to properly maintain your tires, you can help ensure both your own and other drivers’ safety on the road.
