How do I know if I need new tires?

If your tires show significant tread wear, have visible cracks, or if you experience decreased traction, it’s time for new tires. Regularly inspecting your tires can prevent unsafe driving conditions.

What This Means

Worn-out tires can impact your vehicle's performance and safety. The tread depth should be at least 2/32 of an inch; if it's lower, your tires are likely past their prime.

Why It Matters

Driving on worn tires can lead to increased stopping distances and reduced traction, especially in wet conditions. According to research, about 30% of vehicle accidents are caused by poor tire conditions [Source]. Ensuring your tires are in good shape is crucial for your safety on the road.
