Regularly Rotate Your Tires

You should be rotating your tires during every oil change to avoid wearing your tires unevenly, and this is especially important if your vehicle is either front-wheel or rear-wheel drive. Having evenly worn tires will prolong their lifespan and will give you safer handling and traction characteristics.

Always Install New Tires On The Rear Axle

When you get a pair of new tires, you will always want to install them on the rear, improving control and traction on wet surfaces. The idea behind this tip is that if the rear loses traction first, your vehicle will experience a spin-out, which is difficult to correct.

Ensure Proper Tire Pressure

Proper tire pressure is the key to avoiding premature tire wear because too much air or too little can cause the tire to partially contact the road, causing wear on a smaller patch and worse tire life. Also, having the correct tire pressure will provide the maximum traction that the tire can deliver.

Check Tire Pressure Periodically

Checking your tire pressure is a great idea, and you should do it every time you visit the gas station or when you experience unusual handling from your vehicle.

Check Tire Tread Depth Regularly

To maintain safety on the road, especially in wet or slippery weather, you will want to check the depth of your tires. Tires with low depth tread can't handle certain driving conditions, making them dangerous for road use.
