Have you spotted irregular tread wear or does the vehicle vibrate when driving? Before committing to an expensive fix, check the tires first, they may simply be out of balance.

When you think of plies, you probably think of carpets or paper towels, but they're also a big part of your tires. The rubber on your tires is built on in layers that are oriented in different directions. This gives your tire a lot of flexibility and strength.

Did you know a blowout can happen if your tires are under-inflated or over-inflated? Proper tire pressure is vital to your safety and the longevity of your tires, and we can help you make sure your tires are properly inflated.

Did you know that all tires were white during their early years? This white color was due to zinc oxide being added to the rubber for strength.

Tire tread pattern is usually characterized by a geometrical shaping of the grooves, lugs, sipes, and voids. These treads are designed to meet specific product needs, such as high performance tires that provide more rubber through small void ratios to give tires higher traction.

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.

Underinflated tires pose several problems, including overheating and lower tread life. When not inflated properly, tires will wear out fifteen percent faster than when inflated to the proper pressure. Heat increases because greater friction is created between the tire and the road surface, and the tire can fail prematurely.

Using air in our tires might seem pretty simple to us today, but it actually took a while to catch on. While there were several attempts and advancements on tires in the 1800s, it took until 1911 for the first successful tire to be used for cars.

The effects of centripetal force are so great that, as a wheel spins faster and faster, the tire grows thinner and taller. As it reacts to the forces, it can expand so much that the rubber reaches the car’s body, leading to wear, tear, and even blowouts.

04/02/2024

Ever wondered how tire treads work? Apparently, they're present to allow water to be pushed aside when driving on wet roads. This prevents the car from aquaplaning as it increases the rubber's contact with the road surface.

Did you know that the heat of summer can increase your tire’s pressure? Too much tire pressure means too much risk for a blowout! Under-inflated tires are also risky, as they increase the chances of hydroplaning in wet conditions.

Poor performing brakes can actually have a significant impact on tire tread wear. This type of wear is called flat-spot wear and appears as a sudden smooth spot where the tread has been scuffed away when the brakes lock up.
