YOUR CAR NEEDS NEW TYRES

TREAD DEPTH
The tread on your tyres plays an important role
in offering optimum grip in both dry and wet
weather conditions. Experts recommend that a
tyre tread should not be less than 1/16 of an
inch in depth. There are some ways to know the
tread depth on your cars tyres. While some
people use old tricks to gauge the tread depth.
Still, others use small indicators between the
tread grooves with small blocks to learn the
condition of the tread depth. If these small
blocks are present on or almost near equal to
the tread height, it hints towards a replacement
of old tyres immediately.

DRIVING TIME
It is common for tyres to get old and wear out
with time. As a general rule of thumb, the
professionals say the rubber life of a single
tyre is four years. This time is counted from
the time you start using them. But make sure
they are stored in a cold and dry environment
before using and after manufacturing. Do not
forget to check your invoice history. History
should mention when the tyre was last replaced.
Whatever the tread depth is, you should replace
your vehicles tyres in Pemulwuy after every
five-six year. This is because environmental
factors such as extreme heat can wreak havoc on
the inner layers of tyres. And if you leave this
warning sign ignored, it can lead to blowouts as
the rubber deteriorates.

CRACKS OR PUNCTURES IN THE SIDEWALL
The presence of micro cracks on the side wall of
your tyre is a strong indicator of deteriorating
rubber. Cracks or punctures can lead to a tyre
blowout. It can be a catastrophic situation. The
radial tyres of vehicles possess layers of
beading embedded under the tread and shoulders.
But the tyre's side walls are always kept soft
so that the tyre can flex when the vehicle
drives through

• not-so-good surfaces (you can say rough
  surfaces). If the tyres sidewall is punctured,
  it has to be scrapped. Because a punctured tyre
  will no longer maintain proper pressure. This
  problem can be fixed with many remedies. But
  none of these methods offer a permanent
  solution. The best way is to replace the tyre
  with new ones.

BULGES
If you observe that your tyres outer surface
starts to weaken, sooner or later side walls can
begin to bulge or blister. Side walls will start
extending towards the outside. After some time,
this weak spot can lead to a sudden blowout.
Generally, a warranty covers these issues. And it
should not happen when your vehicle is under
warranty. But whatever the situation, if your
tire has this problem, get it replaced by
experts.
