Why Is It Crucial To Check Your Tire Wear?

Uneven or excessive wear can significantly reduce grip, increase braking distance and, in the worst case, cause accidents.

Step 1: Visually Inspect Your Tires

It is crucial to detect obvious signs of wear as well as anomalies such as nicks or bubbles.

Wear indicators give you a quick overview of the condition of your tires.

The tread depth you have is a good indicator of when to replace your tires.

Step 4: Check Tires for Signs of Aging

Cracks or bulges on the sidewalls of the tire may indicate that it is time to change them.

Step 5: Consult a Professional If Necessary

If after these checks you have any doubts, it is recommended to consult a professional for a thorough evaluation.
