The Importance of Tire Maintenance

One thing that we see quite a bit of at K & M Auto Service is cars that have imbalanced or worn-out tires. Your tires take a beating when you drive, and the more you drive, the faster your tires will wear down. When tires wear down, they can become imbalanced, which means that the weight of the wheel is no longer even around the axle. One part of your wheel will weigh slightly more than the opposite side, which can cause more problems than you would think. Even a tiny weight difference can cause a significant amount of vibration when you are driving. If all four of your tires are imbalanced, the vibrations will only be more pronounced. Not only does it cause your vehicle to vibrate uncontrollably, but having uneven tires puts extra heat and stress on the tire treads.

Signs Your Tires Need Balancing

This can also put added strain on your vehicle’s steering and suspension systems. If you notice that your car is vibrating whenever you drive at speeds over 40 mph or so, it could be a sign that your tires are out of balance. At K & M Auto Services, we are adept at balancing and rotating tires.

We will check your tire pressure, look for any signs of uneven wear and we will work to get your wheels balanced as fast as we can. We can also give you advice and tips on how you can maintain your tires to get the most out of them. So, if driving your car to work is like riding a mechanical bull, bring it in to K & M Auto Service and we will thoroughly examine and balance your tires for you.

Touch® Courtesy Check: What’s Included

With a K & M Auto Service oil change, or any other service, you’ll receive a Touch® Courtesy Check. We’ll look inside, outside, under the hood and underneath the car, then explain the findings and give you a written report.

While you’re there, let us perform a Touch® Courtesy Check, which includes a visual check of the following items:

  • Engine air filter

  • Brake fluid

  • Power steering fluid

  • Automatic transmission fluid

  • Coolant/antifreeze

We’ll also walk you through your vehicle manufacturer’s recommendations for replacing these vital fluids and filters.
