Why Are Quality Tires Important?
Your tires are the only point of contact between your car and the road, making them critical for your safety. Worn or damaged tires can lead to reduced handling, longer stopping distances, and an increased risk of accidents. At Lang’s Auto, we ensure your tires are in excellent condition, giving you peace of mind every time you drive.
Signs You May Need New Tires
- Low Tread Depth:
Tires with insufficient tread depth can’t provide adequate grip, especially in wet or icy conditions. If the tread is less than 2/32 of an inch, it’s time to replace your tires. - Uneven Wear:
Uneven wear can indicate alignment or suspension issues. Our team will inspect and address the root cause to prevent premature tire wear. - Cracks, Bulges, or Punctures:
Visible damage like cracks or bulges is a safety hazard. Small punctures can sometimes be repaired, but larger or sidewall damage may require a replacement. - Vibration or Pulling:
Excessive vibration or the car pulling to one side could indicate tire issues, such as uneven wear, misalignment, or imbalanced tires.
