Overview
What it is: Tire maintenance is very important to the safety and longevity of your vehicle. Tires need to be selected by the right dimension for the vehicle make and model. Tires should be bought in sets of four, or at the very least matching groups of 2 on each axle.
Why it should be done: Tires wear in time, tread starts to become thin which leads to lost traction. Other factors such as driving habits, roadway conditions and weather may reduce the life of your tires. This creates safety risks. With regular usage, tires should be replaced every four to five years.
