The tires are an important component of your vehicle, and the only part that has direct contact with the road below. Maintaining your car tires is crucial for ensuring your safety, as well as proper vehicle performance and longevity. Ourisman Honda of Frederick provides a wide range of tire care services, from rotations and alignments to patching and full replacements. We have all your tire needs covered at our Honda dealership serving Clarksville, MD.
Tire Rotations
Tire rotations are a common service that plays an important role in the lifespan of your tires. The tires should be rotated and balanced every six months, which typically lines up with the recommended 7,500-mile oil change interval. Keeping up with tire rotations will allow the tires to wear down evenly, which promotes better performance and longevity.
Signs your car might be due for a tire rotation:
- Uneven tread wear
- Increased road noise
- Decreased traction or difficult handling
- Vehicle pulling to one side
If it's been more than six months since your last tire rotation, contact our service center. Our team can easily rotate your tires, allowing you to return to your daily routines and weekend adventures.
Wheel Alignments
Honda vehicles should typically have a wheel alignment done every 10,000 miles or at least once a year. When the wheels are properly aligned, your car will have better and safer handling. Wheel alignments also help prevent uneven tire wear.
Signs of poor wheel alignment include:
- Vehicle pulling to one side
- Shaking or vibrating steering wheel
- Unresponsive or difficult steering
- The tires squeal at low speeds
- The steering wheel is off center
If you need the alignment checked or adjusted, don't hesitate to set up an appointment at our Honda service center near Hagerstown, MD.
Tire Patching
Tires occasionally end up with small punctures, either from nails or other debris. If the puncture is under a quarter inch in diameter and only affects the tread, the tire can likely be patched. The patch is made of strong, rubberized material that effectively seals the hole and allows the tire to continue functioning normally. When done at our service center, patches have the potential to last for the remaining lifespan of the tire. If the puncture is large or within the sidewall of the tire, a full replacement may be necessary.
New Tires
The average lifespan of a tire can range from approximately 50,000 to 70,000 miles. Certain tires, such as winter or high-performance tires, may have a shorter lifespan. As a general rule of thumb, car tires should typically be replaced every six years unless they display signs of significant wear or damage sooner.
The signs of needing new tires include:
- Shallow tread depth
- Cracks in the sidewall
- Bulges on the tire surface
- Visible wear patterns
- Frequent air pressure loss
