Peterborough Used Tires

Peterborough Used Tires We offer a great selection of used tires, as well as new. All our work is guaranteed. Peterborough Used Tires Inc. was established in 2003.

At that time the business was exclusively the sale and service of quality used tires. Finally, in 2012, we relocated to a 10,000 sq ft facility at our current location, 810 Rye Street, and returned to what we do best: providing the best and biggest variety of tires to customers and repairing tires, we no longer do general auto repairs and have put all of our focus on tires. We also added custom wh

eels and accessories to our lineup. Fast forward to now, we’ve come a long way in the 20 years we’ve served Peterborough and the surrounding area, and we only have our customers to thank. Our services include:
• Sale of new and used tires
• Sale of new rims
• Hi speed electronic balancing
• Installation
• Flat repairs
• Buff and seal rims

To check your tires for bumps, cracks, and nails, park on a level, dry surface and engage the parking brake. Walk around the vehicle to inspect all four tires—including the inside tread and sidewall areas.
1. Check for Bumps (Bulges) Look for strange bubbles, blisters, sticking out from the rubber on the sidewall. Run your hands gently over the entire outside and inside sidewalls. A bump means the tire’s inner fabric broke, usually from hitting a pothole. Replace the tire immediately, as it is a major blowout risk.
2. Check for Cracks - Look for deep splits, cuts, or fine “crows-feet” lines (dry rot) in the rubber. Visually inspect both the tread grooves and the flat sidewall.
3. Check for Nails - Look closely at the main tread for shiny metal heads, screws, or sharp debris stuck in the rubber.How to test: Move your car forward a few feet to see all sides of the tread. Checking for a leak: Mix dish soap and water in a spray bottle and spray the suspicious area. If the nail punctured the tire, you will see growing foam or bubbles. Do not pull the nail out yourself if it is holding air. Drive directly to a local tire repair shop so they can patch or plug it safely.

Check tire pressure easily with a handheld pressure gauge. Test when tires are “cold” (driven under 5 km).Wheel alignment, can help your tires perform properly and help them last longer & will reduce tire wear.Using a Canadian quarter is a quick, easy way to test if your vehicle’s tire tread is safe. Simply insert the coin into the shallowest groove of the tire with the Caribou’s nose facing down. If the tread covers the nose, your tires are safe. If the nose is visible, it’s time to replace them.To check your tires for bumps, cracks, and nails, park on a level, dry surface and engage the parking brake.

Heat causes the air inside your tires to expand. As a rule of thumb, tire pressure increases by about1 PSI for every 5*C (or 1 PSI per 10*C) rise intemperature. This overinflation can reduce your braking ability, cause uneven tread wear, andincrease the risk of blowouts.The heat affecting your tire pressure comesfrom two main sources:1. The WeatherHot summer days raise the ambient temperature around your car. Even if you don’t drive, parking your car in the blazing sun will heat the air inside your tires and raise your PSI.2. Driving FrictionWhen you drive, your tires rub against the road. This friction creates intense heat, which builds up inside the tire and increases your pressure even more.Peterborough Used Tires.810 Rye Street, Peterborough, Ontario [email protected](705) 876-8700

Keep Tires Properly Inflated You can improve your gas mileage by 0.6% on average—up to 3% in some cases—by keepingyour tires inflated to the proper pressure.Under-inflated tires can lower gas mileageby 0.2% for every 1 psi drop in pressure ofall four tires. Properly inflated tires are saferand last longer.Peterborough Used Tires.810 Rye Street, Peterborough, [email protected](705) 876-8700
