Your tires aren’t something you think about, even though you use them every time you get in your vehicle. They are a huge part of propelling you down the highway and you need them to work well. Sure you notice them when one of them goes flat or blows completely, but do you pay much attention to them otherwise? You should! Here are some of the tire services you can get from Schafer’s Auto Center to keep your tires in peak condition so they will last as long as possible.
Alignment
You want your tires to last and you can maximize their lifespan by keeping your vehicle aligned well. This isn’t a service you have to get very often, but you will want to have it when you get new tires and if your alignment gets knocked out of whack for any reason. This can happen in an accident If you notice your vehicle pulling to one side or another, it might be misaligned.
Flat Tire Repair
If you have a lot of construction on your street, it’s possible to pick up a nail in your tire. You could have a puncture, a slow leak, or even a leaky valve stem. Rather than wait for the tire to blow and continuously stop at the gas stations to fill it up with air, it’s best to get it fixed before it wears itself out completely. You can often fix flat tires and use them for much longer.
Tire Rotations
Whenever you get an Philadelphia , PA oil change, SAC will do an 80-point inspection on your vehicle. Every vehicle has recommendations for tire rotations, but generally, you will want to get your tires rotated every other oil change. You’ll get better gas mileage and a smoother ride, and the tread on the tires will have a longer life as well.
Balancing
When you get your tired rotated, they’ll need to be balanced as well. You’ll drive more safely and see less wear and tear on the tires. This tire service protects your investment in your tires.
New Tires
