There are many things that you can do get the most miles you can out of your vehicle’s tires. Both when you buy them and how you keep them up are very important. Here are a few pointers from the guys at AUTCO Tire and Service Center.
• When purchasing, get a tire with less rolling resistance. This will prolong the life of your tire as well as lower your gas mileage.
• At the tire dealership make sure your first priority is getting a tire that is a fit for your vehicle before the price.
• While you are driving be aware that in-town driving is the most detrimental to your tires, you can avoid quick stops and quick starts to lessen the damage.
The two most important things you can do to get the most out of your tires are:
• Check and maintain the air pressure about once a month.
• Rotate the tires every five to seven thousand miles
These two things, if done consistently and correctly, will double the amount of time between tire replacements.
