Drivers often overlook the importance of their car's tires. Tires may be your vehicle's most important safety feature. When you consider that each tire has to support about a quarter of the car's weight, you can understand why a tire defect can become a big problem. If you live in Cherry Hill, new tires are readily available at the Burns Buick GMC Service Center.
It's crucial to inspect your car's tires regularly. Things to look for include the tire's wear, tread depth, air pressure, and signs of damage and deterioration. If you find a problem, the service technicians at the Burns Buick GMC Service Center may be able to repair the tires, but some problems will require new tires in Cherry Hill.

Tires must have sufficient tread depth to perform properly. When it rains, water accumulates on the road. The grooves in the tire tread direct water away from the surface of the tire, providing the traction to allow the car to drive safely. When the grooves are worn, the tire is unable to channel the water away from the tire's surface. This creates hydroplaning, a dangerous condition where instead of driving on the road, the car is actually riding on water. Hydroplaning is the cause of many accidents.
One quick method to check your tire's tread is to use a penny. Make sure Lincoln's head is pointing down and push the penny into a groove. If the tire hides part of Lincoln's head, the tread is still good. If not, it's time to bring your car to the Burns Buick GMC Service Center for a tire inspection.
The age of your car's tires will also determine whether they need to be replaced. Some tire manufacturers advise replacing their tires every six years, while others recommend buying a new set after 10 years. If you have any questions about when to buy new tires, bring your car to the Burns Buick GMC Service Center. We'll inspect the tires and let you know what condition they're in.
