1. Regularly Check Tire Pressure: Underinflated or overinflated tires can lead to uneven wear, poor handling, and reduced fuel efficiency. Use a reliable gauge to check your tire pressure monthly and before long trips. Refer to your vehicle’s manual for the recommended PSI.

2. Rotate Tires Every 6,000-8,000 Miles: Tire rotation promotes even wear, extending the life of your tires. Follow the rotation pattern recommended by your vehicle’s manufacturer. Regular rotations can prevent irregular wear patterns and enhance overall performance.
3. Inspect Tread Depth and Alignment: Worn-out treads reduce traction, especially in wet conditions. Use the penny test—insert a penny into the tread with Lincoln’s head upside down; if you see his entire head, it’s time to replace the tires.
