Tires are designed to last for several years. However, like other important automotive parts, they'll need to be replaced eventually.
When will they need to be replaced? Well, it depends on several factors, such as local road conditions and your driving habits. However, typical estimates say that it should be approximately every four years or 50,000 to 60,000 miles. Again, these estimates don't apply to every vehicle, so consult with one of our expert technicians to learn more!
As mentioned before, several factors will determine when your car needs a new set of tires. Along with road conditions and your driving style, you should also keep in mind the type of car you're driving and if you frequently travel on gravel or other rough terrain.
A few signs that you need to replace your tires include:
- Treads in the tires are no longer visible; instead, the tires appear to be smooth.
- Your vehicle's performance or efficiency has decreased.
- Your vehicle pulls in one direction while stopping or doesn't stop as quickly as it normally does.
