Routine maintenance

One of the smallest portions of a tire but with one of the most important roles. It is about tire shoulder, which all car specialists say is essential. In general, tire shoulders are the components that directly influence the stability of the car, especially while cornering. In the same context, these are indicators of a potential issue with the suspension system. Being in the most visible area of the tire, it is very easy to understand whether...

You know for sure that the time will come when you will have to replace your tires. You have to take this aspect into account from the moment you mount a new set of tires. With their regular use, they become thinner and more damaged over time. The question is: when do you understand that it's time to think about a new set? To be able to answer this question, it is necessary to regularly inspect the condition of the tires to estimate how much of their life is left.

One of the most frightening scenarios for a driver is for one of his tires to go flat during his ride. I am very curious to know what are the reasons that can influence a flat tire at the most inappropriate moment. From what I found out, the drivers themselves are one of the main causes of such cases. I mean, they don't take enough care of their tires. However, many times, a flat tire is possible even under conditions...

Tire manufacturers are paying incredible attention to their design. And the reason does not necessarily lie in their cosmetic appearance, although this is also relevant. Rather, their goal is the permanent improvement of the tires so that they can face the harsh conditions of the roads. Starting with the rubber component and ending with those varied designs of the treads, the tires are created to minimize any impact of water, snow, or ice on driving...

If you were to ask a car enthusiast what is the most important component of a tire, he will probably tell you its tread. But the answer is only partially correct. In fact, each of the tire components plays an important role. And it is not necessary to know everything about them. It is enough to only keep in mind their purpose and specifics so as to choose the best ones. Thus, we can choose the correct tires for our car in a much more efficient way.

When car enthusiasts buy a new car, they pay attention to everything, except the tires. For some reason, tires begin receiving attention precisely when something goes wrong. Either the traction of the vehicle decreases, or the engine begins to consume more fuel. In such situations, drivers ask themselves whether the issue is or is not related to the tires. Well, it is. And the way we take care of them directly contributes to the way the car behaves...

If you think that only a technician can inspect the condition of your tires, you are sorely mistaken. You can do it yourself, just keeping in mind some basic recommendations. It is not necessary to run every week to a technical service center. You can do it only after you detect irregularities with your tires. It is important to inspect the tires regularly. Some deviations can be "silent". That is, they can damage your tire without giving too much notice...

The performance of your vehicle is directly proportional to the quality of your tires. If you want to do your car a favor, get a set of performance tires to benefit from efficient traction, a stable grip, and a comfortable ride. Being exposed to a set of influential factors, tires wear out over time. This is a natural phenomenon that we can expect from the moment we buy a brand-new set. Once the car accumulates mileage, the tires wear harder and harder...

When we buy a new set of tires, we assume certain responsibilities regarding their maintenance. The lack of proper maintenance significantly reduces their life and performance. Tires must always be taken care of, especially when the vehicle runs in harsh weather conditions. And if you think that tire rotation, treadwear inspection, and the right pressure are all that "tire maintenance" means, you are sorely mistaken. There is another danger for tires...

As the responsible driver that you are, you know how important it is to change your car's tires once in a while. You also know that driving with used tires seriously affects the ability of the car to go smoothly and securely. But how often does this "once in a while" have to happen? What signs whisper to us that the tires are already not performing enough? Many drivers are guided by tire validity period. And this is right, but only to a certain extent...
