Your tires are the only part of your vehicle that touches the road.

The Penny Test

If you can see the top of Lincoln's head, your tread is below 2/32" and the tire needs replacement.

Age Matters

Even tires with plenty of tread should be replaced after 6–10 years.

Signs You Need New Tires

  • Uneven or excessive tread wear
  • Visible cracks, bulges, or blisters
  • Vibration at highway speeds
  • Frequent loss of air pressure
