Elite Automotive Group Tire Service Information

Routine tire maintenance will help prolong the life of your tires  and keep you and your passengers safe on the road. Tire rotations on a regular  basis can help ensure that your tires stay in good condition for as long as  possible. This is just one of the many ways you can help keep your tires in  good working order. Keep reading to learn about the importance of tire repair  and when you should schedule tire  service in Springfield.

Routine Tire  Inspections Are Necessary

We recommend having your tires rotated every 3,000 to 5,000  miles or during your regularly scheduled oil changes. This will significantly  help you get the most out of your tires. Alignments are another sure way to  keep your vehicle running well. If your alignment is off, your car will start  pulling to one side and you'll experience steering wheel vibration. If this is  the case, you'll want to bring your vehicle into our onsite Springfield service  center right away.

Be sure to also check your tires' air pressure at least once  a month. If you drive more than 12,000 miles per month, you should inspect them  every other week or so. Failing to do so could cause a blowout on the road.  Follow the recommended psi for your tires in your vehicle's owner's manual.

Signs You Need Tire  Repair/Replacements

There are many ways to tell if your tires are bad or need  servicing. Here are some of the biggest indicators of tire problems:

• Even "wear bars" on sidewall
• Sidewall bulges and/or cracks
• Thumping noise while you drive

In addition, pay attention to your tire tread. It gets worn  out over time, which means your new or pre-owned luxury car will have a harder time  gripping the road. It is imperative that you check your tread occasionally. One  very effective way to do this is by placing a penny into the tread with  Lincoln's head pointing down. If you can see the top of his head, the tread is  way too low.
