BRIGHTON Mich., - As a car owner you should know a
few very important tire tips so that
you can keep your car running smoothly and safely. Here are some facts that could really help you out!
- 1) When
you are only replacing two tires, put the new ones on the back: No matter whether you have a rear,
front or all-wheel-drive vehicle the rear tires are what provide stability and
the new tires must go on the back.
Otherwise you run the risk of spinning out when driving in bad weather
conditions or taking tight corners.
- 2) The
TPMS (tire-pressure monitoring system) in your vehicle does not alert you that
your tires are running low on air until they are more than 25% under the
vehicle manufacturer’s recommended pressure. TPMS is supposed to be a last minute warning not just a
friendly reminder so make sure you keep an eye on your tire pressure!
- 3) Your tires will not burst if you exceed
the “max press” number for your vehicle, however, reaching such a high pressure
level could cause a tire failure if you hit a big pothole on the road.
Keeping these things in
mind can help you to become a more conscious and safe driver, so pass these tire tips along
to your friends and family and make sure they know these simple yet important
facts about tire maintenance!
