Time for New Tires? Visit Your Chevy Dealership

Do you know how to tell when you need new tires? There are a few tell-tale signs you should look out for. Once you notice these signs, head to your Chevy dealership in Vancouver, WA, for a fresh set of tires to keep your car in the best condition possible.

Signs It’s Time for New Tires

Your Tires Are Getting Up There

Your tires have a finite lifespan and will only last for a certain number of miles. In general, you should consider replacing your tires after you’ve driven 60,000 miles on them. This is true even if your tires are only a few years old. In general, mileage matters more than age, unless your tires have been on your car for over six years.

Your Sidewall Is Damaged

If there are indentations, bulges, or cracks on your sidewall, then it’s time to head to the dealer to get a whole new set of tires. This damage often comes with age, but you should still get fresh tires even if your damaged ones aren’t that old.

Your Tires Are Worn Down

Tires wear down as you drive on them, and this is the main reason you need to replace yours every few years. Abraham Lincoln can help you figure out if it’s time to replace your tires because they’re worn down. When you put a penny into your tread upside down, you shouldn’t be able to see Abraham Lincoln’s entire head. If you see Abe’s whole head above the tread, then head to the dealer.

Your Tires Are Unevenly Worn

Tires that are worn down unevenly have a shorter lifespan than tires that have the same amount of wear all over them. Unevenly worn tires can also be uncomfortable to drive on, so if you don’t have the same amount of tread wear over the entire surface of each tire, then it may be time for a new set.
