Many things wear treads on tires: extreme weather, pressure, unpaved roads, sharp road debris like nails or glass, and alignment. Regularly rotating your car’s tires during every other oil change will extend their lifespan by evenly distributing weight to the entire tread surface.

Here are three things that indicate you should have your tires inspected, rotated, or replaced.

Tire Treads - The depth of treads is safest when there's at least a 4/32-inch depth to properly grip the road while allowing water and dirt to flow easily.

Alignment- If you notice your car veering left or right, treads may show excessive wear due to uneven balance from misalignment and overcorrection to straighten the vehicle.

Air Pressure - Too much or too little tire pressure makes the car work harder when driving, leading to higher fuel consumption.
