The Importance of Good Tires

With so many important components making our vehicles run, we tend to forget the important role tires play in keeping our vehicle safely on the road. It’s not just enough to buy new tires and assume they’ll last the life of the tire’s warranty. At Honda of Ames, we can offer some helpful tips on how to get the most life out of your tires, which will provide with the best possible ride.

Tire tread and tire pressure are equally important for good tire maintenance. Most new vehicles have a tire monitoring system that alerts you if your tires have incorrect air pressure. If not, you should check the pressure regularly, especially in cold or hot weather. Tires lacking good tread should be replaced.
