Tips for Holiday Travel

Tire Maintenance for Beginners

posted on 1/12/2018 9:14:13 AM
How much do you remember about tire maintenance from your driver’s education class? I bet you don’t remember much. Most courses cover the rules of the road, not how to maintain a vehicle. As a new driver, there are many things to learn. Taking care of your car is one of those things. Let’s start with the one part of your vehicle that touches the road, your tires.   That’s right, your tires are the only part of your vehicle that actually touch the road. That makes them an important safety fe...

Why You Should Never Skip a Tire Rotation

posted on 9/5/2017 2:47:44 PM
The cornering and rolling forces on each of your tires are different.  If you have a front wheel drive car, the power and most of the force is transmitted to the front tires while the rear tires pretty much just follow along like fixed wagon wheels.  A rear-wheel drive car or truck sends power to the back while steering forces are handled by the front wheels.  All-wheel drive and 4wd have their unique power, steering and cornering characteristics as well.  The point is, your front left tire is ...
