Maximize the performance & lifespan of your vehicle’s tyres

As a part that your car drives on, tyres are more critical than we're thinking about. Having a decent set for the road is always a good start. A few hundred miles later, even the best tyres begin to wear gradually, affecting the performance and safety of the vehicle.

  2. How to maximize the performance and lifespan of your vehicle’s tyres? As a part that your car drives on, tyres are more critical than we're thinking about. Having a decent set for the road is always a good start. A few hundred miles later, even the best tyres begin to wear gradually, affecting the performance and safety of the vehicle. Sometimes the tyres are both the most ignored and the most important part of any journey. As the final gear between your car and the ground, all the force of your acceleration, braking power, and torque must be passed through your tyres before moving your car even an inch. Our team in Warilla can guide you on how you can increase the lifespan and performance of your tyres. www.kaysdiscounttyres.com.au

  3. Here are few tips that will help you identify a worn tyre: 1. Check your tread depth Tread depth is a factor to be considered when changing tyres. Both tyres have tread wear indicators, which are small blocks of rubber formed into the tread grooves at regular intervals. As the tyre wears, these blocks are getting closer and flush with the surface of the tread. 2. Check the tyre age Experts argue that a tyre older than five years will have to be replaced because the rubber loses its suppleness by drying out moisture and oils. The age of the tyre can be determined by testing the date of manufacture stamped on the sidewall, usually in the form of a four-digit number, where the first two digits indicate the week of manufacture and the last two digits of the year. A decent set of wheels has a big part to play in giving you a comfortable ride, healthy handling of fire, and better fuel economy. The condition of the rubber on which your vehicle rides can also mean a confident brake and a reassuring ride. Check your tyres regularly, and if there are signs of wear and tear, it's time to change them. www.kaysdiscounttyres.com.au

  4. Here are few tips that will help you identify a worn tyre: 3. Check for uneven wear Uneven wear is a symbol that indicates more than average tension on the tyre. This may be due either to incorrect orientation of the wheel, to wearing a suspension, or to driving under or over-inflated with the tyres. Inspect the entire contact surface, including the outer edges of the tyre, to search for irregular wear. Tyre shop in Warilla has the best mechanics, they will solve all your problems. 4. Check air pressure Checking your air pressure periodically goes a long way towards extending the lifetime of your tyre. Getting over or under-inflated tyres create uneven pressure on your treads, which starts to appear as an uneven pattern of wear. Driving with over-inflated tyres wears down the middle of the tread, whereas driving with under-inflated tyres induces wear close to the shoulders of the tread. Driving with under-inflated tyres will not only cause unnecessary uneven wear but will also reduce your fuel economy. Bear in mind that temperature variations affect your air pressure - colder temperatures will cause your air pressure to drop, whereas hot temperatures will cause it to rise. www.kaysdiscounttyres.com.au

  5. Here are few tips that will help you identify a worn tyre: 5. Check your tyres’ alignment Check your alignment to get the most out of your tyres (ideally every 5,000km). This is a long way to get even more wear on your tyres and maximise your efficiency. Problems with the alignment of the tyre manifest as wobbling, pulling to one side, or your wheels not correcting after straightening out of a turn. Getting unaligned tyres leads to unwanted, uneven wear patterns, such as cupping, feathering, one-sided wear, and so on. This uneven wear reduces the efficiency of your tyres, your vehicle, and makes your tyres wear faster. Having your tyresaligned can be expensive, but is well worth the cost. 6. Rotating your tyres regularly Since your tyres wear differently depending on their position, it's best to change them regularly and even out of wear. For example, if your car is rear-wheel drive, your rear tyres would be worn faster (and vice versa for front-drive vehicles). Rotating tyres is better achieved daily to minimise the difference in wear between the front and rear tyres. The more frequently you rotate, the more you're going to wear (and better performance out of your tyres). The rotation pattern depends on whether the vehicle is a front-wheel drive, rear-wheel drive, and directional or non-directional tyres. www.kaysdiscounttyres.com.au
