<\/p>\nTires rely on good tread depth to maintain traction and to shed water on wet roads. Tires should be checked at least once a month as the tread is checked at least once a month for excessive and uneven wear. The most accurate tread depth measurements are made with a simple tread depth gauge available at any parts store.<\/p>\n
Insert a coin into the tread groove with the top of Washington’s head facing down. If the top of his head is not visible, Your tires have at least 4\/32 inch tread and are suitable for continuous use. If you could see the top of Washington’s head, It’s time to start shopping for new tires. Take measurements at three locations across the tire tread: (1) The outer edge, (2) The center, (3) The inner edge.<\/p>\n
Tires worn at this level will also have visible wear indicators (thin bald strips) that extend from side to side across two or more parts of the tread.<\/p>\n
Use a tire pressure gauge to make sure the tires are properly inflated and then fill the tires with air as needed. To check your pressure, remove the valve stem cover, and press the gauge head evenly on the valve stem, Use firm pressure until the hissing stops. Remove the gauge and read the pressure. Compare this to the recommended inflation pressure for your vehicle. Always check your tires when it’s cold (after sitting for at least 3 hours or before driving a mile at a moderate speed). No pressure bleed from a heated tire.<\/p>\n

In addition to the tread depth and inflation pressure, You should also check your tires for any damage or conditions that warrant replacement. Look at the tread and sidewalls for any cuts, scrapes, holes, bulges, bumps or cracks. If you see anything suspicious, Have a tire service professional take a closer look.<\/p>\n
You also want to keep an eye on the age of your tire. Depending on how much you drive each year, Your tire tread can last for years, but just because the tread isn’t worn doesn’t mean your tires don’t need to be replaced. Bridgestone recommends, As per industry standards, Removing tires from service within a period not exceeding ten (10) years after the date of manufacture.<\/p>\n
