Tires need at least one-eighth of an inch of tread to maintain their grip on the road. Less tread can endanger you since the car can lose traction on slick roads.

Directional tire treads are made up of V-shaped patterns with large spaces between each lug, creating a mud and snow tire that provides excellent traction. However, the tire must be installed with the side facing out so that the lugs hit the ground in a certain way to provide maximum traction.

Did you know that all automobile tires on the market today come with a DOT number? This code, found on the sidewall, signifies that the tire complies with US DOT safety standards and identifies the manufacturer, tire size, tire type, and week and year of manufacture.

When it’s time to replace your tires, it’s always better to buy used tires from a reputable tire dealer than to hit the junkyard. When you buy your tires from us, you can be sure that you’re getting tires that are safe to drive on.

When it comes to investing in new tires for your vehicle, it’s recommended that you buy the best tire your budget allows for and one that’s going to fit your particular driving needs. According to the UTQG scale, available traction grades are from highest to lowest: AA, A, B, and C.

If you notice cracks in the sidewall of your tires, it’s probably time to bring it in for repair or replacement. This includes cracks, cuts, and scrapes in the side of the tires. While some imperfections may be fine, others might lead to a slow leak or even a blowout.

Low tread not only increases your chances of a blowout, but it also changes your braking distance. In the event of an emergency, you may not be able to brake in time.

Putting air in your tires by how they look isn't a good idea. Check your air pressure once a month with an accurate pressure gauge to keep your tires properly inflated. This is to keep you safe and extend the life of your tires.

While we usually fill our tires with normal air, did you know that there's a better alternative? Nitrogen, apparently, tends to stay in the tire longer thus keeping the tire inflated for a longer time. It also resists pressure fluctuations better when the weather becomes unstable.

Did you know that many off-road tires aren't suited for prolonged road use? However, you can get an all-terrain set that will work both on and off road. These tires offer a good mix of features that allow them to perform adequately off-road yet still provide a comfortable ride on-road.

If you are buying only two tires, make sure to put the new tires in the rear. This prevents instability that can cause oversteering. If buying only one tire, put in on the rear axle and pair it with the tire with the greatest tread depth.

A trend within the automotive tire industry is "plus sizing," which involves mounting bigger wheels and tires onto vehicles. Plus sizing typically increases cornering response, traction and enhances the overall look of your vehicle.

Factory-issued spare tires aren’t meant to be used for longer than the 50-50 rule – don’t drive more than 50 miles on it or faster than 50 mph.

Did you know that tires lose air at a rate of about a pound a month? That is why it is important to use a tire gauge to measure the air pressure in your tires regularly, since underinflated tires can wear faster and affect the handling of your car.

Tire tread is either a thick rubber or a composite/rubber compound. The composite/rubber compound is specifically formulated to provide a level of traction that does not wear away too quickly.

When determining whether to customize your vehicle's wheels with billet or cast rims, it is important to keep in mind that, while billet rims are typically more costly, they are also much more durable and lighter than cast rims.

While car owners might be reluctant to replace worn tires that still have some tread on them, it's important that they do. Apparently, tires whose treads have become shallow from wear can no longer effectively push water out of the way. This makes the vehicle very prone to hydroplaning.
