Fall & Holiday Tire Care Tips: 91% of long distance holiday travel is by car. Tire Inspection Check tread depth – Tread depth is crucial to stopping, steering, and staying on the road. The better the tread, the better the traction. Check tire pressure –A tire can lose one pound per square inch when the temperature drops 10° and as little as 5 psi can compromise safety. Check for damage – Investigate for cracks, cuts, splits, punctures, holes, and bulges in the tread or on the sidewalls. Tire Rotation Proper rotation can help avoid problems with wheel alignment or balance that adversely affect treadwear, which could make cars hazardous on the road. Stop by West Houston Volkswagens service department for a no charge tire and air pressure check before you make your holiday journey.
