Signs You Need New Tires
Tires don’t last forever. While there are different opinions about when tires should be retired altogether, the general rule is that you shouldn’t use them longer than 10 years. Of course, there are other clues to help you know when it’s time to shop for a new set.
Our technicians can locate the expiration date if you’re unable to find it. But you can also take some measures on your own. One simple check you can perform is a tread test with a penny. Place an upside-down penny in your tire tread. If you see Abraham Lincoln’s head, you should purchase new tires.
Aside from the tread test, visually inspect your tires for tears or other signs of damage. And of course, if you hear any odd noises or vibrations while driving, chances are it’s time to make a replacement.
