Here at BMW of Columbus, our service center can provide tire service for your BMW. Do you know how to spot wear on your car's tires when driving around Phenix City? There are a few signs that could indicate tire replacement is necessary. Here is what to look for.
Does Your BMW Need New Tires?
Drivers in LaGrange can sometimes prevent a flat tire by replacing tires that are worn. Things to look for include:
- Worn tread
- Wear along the inside of the tire
- A slow leak
- Raised areas or "knots"
- Belts showing
Any of these signs is usually a good indicator that your tire will fail soon. You should have it replaced before a blow out occurs.
Having Your Tires Checked, Changed, or Rotated
Keeping a good schedule of tire maintenance is another way to prevent a flat. Our service center is able to inspect your tires and replace them if necessary.
An important aspect of car maintenance that many drivers miss is regular tire rotations. Some tire rotations are required to keep your tire warranty in effect. A good rule of thumb is to have tire rotations performed whenever you schedule an oil change. About every 5,000 miles should do the trick.
Tire rotations help preserve the life of your tires by making sure each tire is getting even wear. Regular tire rotations can also help you spot any alignment issues that need attention. Poor alignment causes tires to wear much faster when you're driving around Opelika.
When replacing tires around Auburn, AL, it is always a good idea to replace all of them at the same time. At the very least, try to replace both front or rear tires together.
