Why You Shouldn’t Mix Tires

posted on 10/11/2018 10:39:02 AM

A matching tire will have the same tread pattern, construction, and size as your existing tires. We never recommend you use mismatched tires unless specifically recommended by the manufacturer of your vehicle.   A few ways drivers will mismatch tires include: using tires with different tread patterns, using tires made by different manufacturers, using tires made fo...

posted on 7/12/2018 10:33:37 AM
Fall weather in many areas can bring a large fluctuation in temperatures between daytime and nighttime. These changes in temperature can cause your tires to lose pressure as the air inside them expands and contracts. This triggers the “Check Tire Pressure” light on your dashboard. This light is known as the TPMS, or Tire-Pressure Monitoring System. For many of us, this light can be an alarming surprise. However, there is no need to panic. The light does not necessarily mean your tires are lea...
