When it comes to your performance, a good set of tires can truly make a difference. Tires can affect your overall ride quality, handling, traction, and even your fuel efficiency. Heritage Honda Westminster is highlighting the signs that it’s time to buy new Honda CR-V tires.
Low Tire Tread
For your safety, you should replace your tires if your tread has become too low because your tires can’t provide the traction you need on slippery surfaces. Your tires need at least 2/32 of an inch of tread, which is the legal minimum tread depth. However, it’s generally recommended to have at least 4/32 of an inch of tread for adequate traction.
Visible Damage
If your tires have visible damage, that’s also a cause for concern. If there are any cracks or bulges in your sidewalls, that can compromise the quality of your tires. Irregular wear and uneven tread are also signs that it’s time to upgrade your tires (and check your alignment).
Consistently Low Pressure
Your tires will naturally deflate over time, although at a slow pace. If yours are deflating quickly or consistently low, you likely have a puncture or leak. If it’s minimal, we may be able to repair it, although any serious damage requires a replacement.
Old Age
No matter how you care for your tires, they will need to be replaced eventually. Tires wear down naturally from sunlight, heat, and friction. Generally, experts recommend you replace your tires every six years and you should never drive them longer than 10 years.
