Make Sure Your Tires Are In Good Shape – Yourself!

You have a lot riding on your tires. Isn’t that the old slogan? Well, it is actually true. If you think about it, the tires on your vehicle are the only part that actually touches the road beneath you. Bearing that in mind, you can see why the team at 2000 Auto in Melbourne, FL are so passionate about making sure everyone on the road is driving on safe tires. This doesn’t just mean free from damage, either; the tread on your tires must be such that it can adequately grip the road. And you can check this yourself! The team at 2000 Auto in Melbourne, FL explains how.

The Penny Test

Take a look at the tread on your tires. We’ll bet that it doesn’t look quite as fresh as the day you had them put on, does it? But is it still doing the job you need it to? There is an easy way to tell, and you don’t need our help to do it. All you have to do is find a penny. That’s right, a penny. Once you’ve got one, slide it between the tread of your tires and look across the surface of the treads. Can you see the top of Abraham Lincoln’s head? If you can, this means your tires’ treads are worn past the point of safety and you are in need of at least one new tire. Tires wear at different rates so you may not need four new tires just yet, but chances are you will soon.
