Tire Installation

Your tires should be replaced as recommended by your manufacturer, which is generally every six years. Tires will wear over time, causing them to lose traction, and driving conditions will be unsafe. Proper tire maintenance will help keep your tires healthy and effective. Checking your tire pressure, tire repair, tire rotation, and wheel alignments are services to help keep your tires performing its best.

When Do I Need to Have New Tires Installed?

Tire installation should be performed by skilled mechanics using the proper resources. Your tires become less effective as they wear, and their ability to perform is reduced. An easy way to check your tire’s tread depth is the penny test. Insert a penny into your tire's tread groove. If you can see all of Lincoln's head, your tread depth is less than 2/32 inch, and it's time to replace your tires. Tires are considered to be bald when one or more of their grooves are worn down to 2/32 inch.
