The lifespan of a tire depends on various factors, including the tire’s brand, quality, driving habits, and road conditions.
To ensure optimal safety and performance, tires must be replaced every six years, regardless of their condition. However, you should inspect your tires regularly for several signs and apply the necessary service (patch, plug, replacement, inflation, etc.) accordingly.
Some of these signs include:
A problem with your suspension or wheel alignment can cause your tires to wear unevenly.
If you feel a vibration in your steering wheel, seat, or floorboard, it could be due to an unbalanced tire or other issues with your tires.
A leak or a puncture can cause one or more of your tires to be low on air pressure. Sometimes, the tires can be rectified with a patch or plug.
If you notice any bulges or bubbles on the sidewalls of your tires, there could be internal damage or weakness in the tire, which could cause it to fail.
Are signs of damage or wear and tear. They could lead to a tire blowout.
If your car feels like it’s pulling to one side or you have difficulty steering, this could be an alignment issue or a problem with your tires.
Tire and brake problems can lead to unusual noises. Seek help from a professional to pinpoint the exact source of the noise.
Whether you can repair a punctured tire or need to replace it depends on the size, location, type of puncture, and the tire’s age and condition.
If the puncture is less than a quarter-inch in diameter, located in the tire’s tread area, and hasn’t caused significant damage to its internal structure, it can still be repaired with a patch or plug.
However, if the puncture is in the sidewall or shoulder or the tire is worn out or damaged beyond repair, you must purchase a new set to match your vehicle type.
These two services often need clarification. While both improve handling and ensure even contact with the road, how they are done is different.
In tire balancing, weights are added to various points to adjust the tire’s weight distribution of your tires. It’s usually done every 10,000 miles or every six months. But you can balance your tires whenever you feel vibrations, notice uneven wear, or install new tires.
On the other hand, tire alignment (also known as wheel alignment) involves adjusting three wheel angles: caster, camber, and toe. Getting your tires aligned every 12,000 miles or whenever you replace them is generally recommended.
Tire rotation is moving the tires from one position to another. This is done by physically removing each tire and repositioning it to a different wheel position on the vehicle.
Regularly switching your tire’s positions can help extend the life of your tires by ensuring they all wear evenly. This service is generally recommended every 6,000 to 8,000 miles, every six months, or as your vehicle manufacturer advises.
