Prioritizing Your Safety at J & H Automotive & Tire

At J & H Automotive & Tire, the safety of our customers takes precedence above all else. We are dedicated to ensuring that you reach your destination safely and reliably every time you hit the road. One critical area of concern for the vehicles that come through J & H Automotive & Tire is the condition of their tires.

Your tires serve as your vehicle's only contact point with the road. When they do not perform their role correctly, all the research and safety testing that went into your car's design may not be sufficient to keep you safe. In the sections below, we provide essential information about your tires and how to recognize when it's time for replacements.

The Dangers of Old or Worn Tires

Old or worn tires can drastically affect your vehicle's performance and safety. Small cracks and wear can reduce your control and increase the risk of accidents. We recommend regular tire inspections to catch issues early.

The Importance of Tire Inflation

Proper tire inflation is key for optimal tire performance and vehicle efficiency. Over or under-inflation can cause uneven wear, reduce fuel efficiency, and compromise the tire's structure and stability.

Recognizing When Tire Tread is Worn

Adequate tire tread is essential for maintaining good traction. Insufficient tread depth can lead to hydroplaning on wet roads. We use precise tools to measure tread depth and recommend tire replacement when necessary.

Regular visual inspections can help spot early signs of tire damage like cuts, bulges, or objects lodged in the tread. Addressing these issues promptly can prevent further damage and ensure safe driving.

FAQs About New Tires

But Aren't New Tires More Expensive?

While a set of new tires may appear costlier on the day of installation, factoring in J & H Automotive & Tire promotions or manufacturer rebates often makes the cost of new tires only slightly higher than purchasing used ones. Furthermore, you can't surpass the unparalleled confidence and safety offered by new tires! The cost of new tires also encompasses the manufacturer's warranty, which, in most cases, covers premature tread wear.

Can New Tires Lead to Fuel Savings?

Opting for fuel-efficient tires might make your new tires more budget-friendly than you think. Numerous tire manufacturers are developing new tires that can pay off at the gas pump. If you have a lengthy commute or enjoy traveling, discuss this option with our tire specialists.

Fuel-saving tires still provide dependable traction in rainy weather and a comfortable ride around town. Some manufacturers even claim that fuel-saving tires can save up to 2,600 miles' worth of gas over the lifespan of a tire set.

How Long Do New Tires Typically Last?

On average, new tires have a lifespan of about 3 to 4 years. If treadwear is a concern, consider rugged off-road or on-road terrain tires. Many of these tires are built to provide a smooth ride during leisurely cruising but transform into durable workhorses when it comes to hauling or towing.

How Long Should You Drive on New Tires?

Predicting tire longevity isn't an exact science. Generally, expect 60,000 to 75,000 miles (four to five years) from a reliable set.

Do I Need to Do Anything After Getting New Tires?

The first 500 miles are crucial for your new tires' long-term health. Gentle acceleration, braking, and cornering help manufacturing lubricants and release agents wear off evenly, promoting optimal grip and performance down the road.

How Long After New Tires Should I Get an Alignment?

Replacing tires throws off your car's delicate alignment, impacting handling and tire wear. That's why a post-change alignment, preferably a 4-wheel one, is recommended. Additionally, regular alignments every few years, regardless of tire changes, ensure optimal safety and performance.
