The average Canadian drives over 15,000 kilometres annually. To achieve this mileage safely and efficiently, maintaining your tires is essential. Proper tire care not only extends the lifespan of your tires but also ensures safety in various weather conditions.

Practice Good Driving Habits

Your driving style significantly affects tire longevity. Even new tires can wear out quickly if subjected to harsh driving conditions.

  • Adhere to Speed Limits: Driving at the recommended speed helps preserve your tires.
  • Avoid Tailgating: Sudden stops and hard braking can cause excessive wear and tear on your tires.
  • Stay Alert: Hitting curbs, potholes, and other road hazards can damage tires, rims, and wheel alignment.
  • Avoid Peeling Out: Rapid acceleration can burn rubber and reduce tire life.

Monitor Air Pressure

Proper tire inflation is crucial for tire health. Tire pressure is measured in pounds per square inch (PSI) and should be regularly checked.

  • Use a Tire Pressure Gauge: For older vehicles without dashboard displays, check the tire pressure monthly.
  • Adjust for Temperature Changes: Cold temperatures can lower air pressure, while warm temperatures can increase it slightly.
  • Consult Your Owner’s Manual: Maintain the recommended PSI to avoid blowouts from over-inflation or damage from under-inflation.

Rotate and Balance Your Tires

Regular tire rotation and balancing are essential to prevent uneven wear.

  • Rotate Tires Every 8,000 to 12,000 Kilometres: This practice ensures even distribution of wear.
  • Balance Your Wheels: Dynamic wheel balancing removes heavy spots, preventing vibrations and promoting even tire wear.

Prioritize Vehicle Maintenance

Regular vehicle maintenance significantly impacts tire health.

  • Check Alignment Every Six Months: Misalignment can cause uneven tire wear and affect handling.
  • Inspect Brakes: Worn brake lines and components can lead to excessive tire wear when braking.

Consistent tire care and maintenance not only enhance safety but also save money in the long run. Implement these practices to ensure your tires perform optimally throughout their lifespan.
