Five signs need to change tires

If the tires in your car appear in one of the five signs below, you need to replace them immediately to ensure safety.

1: The depth of the groove on the tire

To ensure the best grip, you need to make sure that the grooves in the tires need to be at least 1.6 mm deep. If you regularly move on slippery roads or wet roads, it is best to double the height of the tires. To check the depth of the tire, you just need to buy a thin plastic ruler and cut off (or subtract the length) of the plastic with no measuring strip at both ends and plug into the tire groove.

2: The tire wear indicator bar starts to appear

Modern tires have a remarkable feature that old tires can not get, which are the wear marks under the grooves. They are small rubber girders located beneath the grooves, and can not (or can not see) when the tire is new. After a while, they will gradually appear. If one or two of these bars can be seen clearly, it is usually time to replace the tire. However, if you want to save money, it can be combined with a groove depth measurement to decide if you need to change a tire.

3: Cracks appear

Not all signs appear on the tire surface - they are also concentrated on the tire. Due to pressure changes, tires may appear as small cracks on the surface of the tires. In addition, during the operation, the tire can be brushed against sharp edges somewhere or crushed stone chips, causing cuts. If these traces appear too much or too big - this is the time when you should not regret the old tires and change the tires as soon as possible.

4: Swelling or peeling on the tires

Sometimes the surface of the tire is the first place worn out. The consequence of this is the appearance of blisters or peeling on the tires. These marks can cause a sudden explosion of the tire. Therefore, if you do not replace the tire as soon as the blisters or blisters are discovered, the risk of serious accidents is very high.

5: Vibrating steering wheel

When driving, vibration is unavoidable, especially when you are traveling on rocky roads. However, after a period of driving, you will be able to train a conditioned reflex and enough to recognize how unusual the vibration is.

There are many reasons that cause the steering wheel of the vehicle to vibrate a lot. Your brakes may be broken, the wheels are fitted out of balance or even malfunction in the engine. However, in most cases, abnormal vibration is caused by tire problems. So quickly put your car to the garage to get the most accurate conclusion.
