As a driver, you should have basic tire and tire maintenance knowledge. If you have questions about your tires and how to take care of them, you may find the answers in the frequently asked questions below. Auto service experts from Miller Toyota in Manassas, VA, prepared this FAQ.
You should check your owner's manual to know the recommended tire pressure for your vehicle. The information is also usually written on the inside driver's door jam. You should always follow the manufacturer's recommendation. If you switch to plus-sized tires, the recommended tire pressure may change.
It's impossible to know if you have low tire pressure just by sight alone. Your tires can lose up to 50% of air before you notice that they're underinflated. That is why it's important to check your tire pressure monthly using a tire gauge. To get an accurate reading, you should check the tire pressure before using your vehicle.
If you're driving a vehicle made after 2006, it most likely has a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS). It's a feature that alerts you if you have very low tire pressure. If you need to inflate your tires, you'll see the tire pressure light come on. The system won't alert you if your tire is overinflated. The TPMS aims to help drivers realize the importance of tire maintenance.
There are many reasons for premature tire wear, including improper inflation, worn vehicle parts, harsh driving conditions, and others. It can be hard to determine the cause of premature tire wear by just looking at your tires. The best thing for you to do is to go to an automotive service center and have a professional inspect your tires.
You should consult your owner's manual to know how frequently you need to replace your tires. The general rule is that you should replace your tires when they hit the 50,000-mile mark. Some popular tire manufacturers like Firestone, Michelin, and BF Goodrich recommend this.
However, other factors affect the life span of tires. Driving conditions and your driving style can change your tire's longevity.
If you're only going to replace two tires, you should put the new ones at the back of the vehicle.
Also known as wheel alignment, tire alignment is an auto care service that ensures your wheel's angles correspond to your manufacturer's specifications. If your tires are not aligned, your treads will wear unevenly, and you can experience steering issues like pulling to one side of the road even though you're driving straight.
