The Importance of Great Tires

Tread doesn't only mean the grooves on your tire, either. It also means the shape of your tire, the tread lugs, and the tread voids. Maintaining your tread and its quality is important, and worn-out tread is bad for a few reasons, including:

  • Tread allows the tire to flex and grip the road better, and a tread with less gripping ability leads to a greater chance of accidents.
  • Tread grooves and voids allow water to pass through and the allow the tire to go through water and remain on the road. When these are worn down, it means a greater chance of your car hydroplaning and losing control in wet conditions.

The easiest way to determine if you need new tires is with the humblest of coins in your wallet - the good, old, easily overlooked penny.

Simply take your penny, holding it with Lincoln's head upside down, and insert it into the groove on your tire. If you can see the top of Lincoln's head, then your tire is worn down and should be replaced. However, if Lincoln disappears, your tires should be good to go.
