• Proper inflation is critical for vehicle handling, fuel efficiency, and tire longevity.

4. Manteniment

Regular maintenance is essential for extending the life of your tires and ensuring safe driving.

4.1 Tire Rotation

• Rotate your tires every 5,000 to 7,500 miles, or as recommended by your vehicle manufacturer. This helps promote even tread wear across all four tires.

4.2 Tread Depth Inspection

• Regularly check the tread depth using a tread depth gauge. The legal minimum tread depth is typically 2/32 of an inch.
• Tires have built-in tread wear indicators (small bars molded into the tread grooves) that become flush with the tread surface when the tire is worn to 2/32 inch.
