Learn About the Signs that Point to Tire Replacements

As the point of connection between the road and your vehicle, tires are one of the most important features of your car! They have tough jobs to do, like providing traction, supporting the weight of your car, and absorbing vibration from the road. Several visual and performance-related signs indicate your tires have deteriorated, either due to excessive wear or age. Learn about what to look out for when it comes to maintaining your tires here at Bedford CDJR. If you notice any of these signs, schedule an appointment with our certified technicians, and we'll help you get the new tire you need today!

Have You Noticed a Lower Drive Quality from your Vehicle?

If riding in your car has started to feel like you're on a rollercoaster at the county fair, tires in bad shape may be to blame. Excessive shaking or vibrations while driving may indicate tire imbalance, hidden internal damage, or tread separation. Poor driving quality, even on smooth roads, is a major sign that your tire life may be nearing its end. If you've experience a lower quality drive recently, get your tires inspected at Bedford CDJR, and we'll help you with the next steps!

Low Tread Depth Requires New Tires

If your tires have worn out their tread, you will need to get new tires. Tire tread is essential for keeping your vehicle safe, and it provides the traction your car needs to perform basic functions like stopping and turning. If your tread is too worn out, you may not be able to pass your annual vehicle inspection. You can check your tire tread depth with the classic penny trick. Stick an upside-down penny into your tire tread, and if you can see the top of Lincoln's head, it's time to get new tires. Our full-service team can help you find the right tires and replace them for you. Make an appointment to get started!

Tire-Related Performance Issues

Is your car feeling sluggish, losing traction, or struggling to stop and go? Your tires are likely the root cause. Worn-out tires can seriously reduce traction, increase your stopping distance, and even make highway steering feel loose or shaky. You might also notice more slippery driving in rain or snow. If any of these performance issues are something you've been dealing with, it's probably time to get new tires. Visit Bedford CDJR to get the new tires you need today!

How Often Do I Need New Tires?

Think your tires are good just because they look okay? Think again! Most tire manufacturers recommend replacing your tires with new ones every 6 to 10 years. Even if you still have ample tire tread, it's recommended to replace your tires because rubber naturally breaks down over time. Going too long between tire replacements could contribute to lower vehicle performance over time. Keep your car performing at its best with timely tire replacements so you can reach your destinations seamlessly.
