Complete a Tire Inspection

Be sure to take the time to inspect your tires regularly. To lengthen the life of your tires, keep on the lookout for the following:

Cuts or gougesEmbedded road debris (nails, rocks etc,)Uneven tire treadExcessive wear

Because your tires tread is crucial for good traction, it should be checked at least once a month. A tread depth gauge, readily available at any auto parts store, is the best way to check.

If you dont have a gauge, the penny test is another option for checking your tires! Simply place the penny upside down in between the tire tread with Lincolns head facing down. If you can see the top of his head, its time for a tire replacement.
