Taking care of your tires is very important for several reasons, the most important of which is to ensure that your car is safe to drive and free from the risk of a tire blowout causing a major accident, God forbid, and to keep fuel consumption within normal limits, as damaged tires or tires with incorrect pressure will consume more fuel.
Tires are the only component of the car that provides contact with the road, and if they have problems such as wear and tear or cracks, or if they have exceeded their lifespan or the distance they are allowed to travel, they will affect driving and control, especially at high speeds or in harsh conditions.

Top tips for car tire care
Below, we will share with you the most important tips for caring for and maintaining your car tires, which are as follows:
Monitor air pressure constantly
If your car is not equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system, you must monitor the pressure in all tires constantly every 1 to 3 or 4 months, depending on the age of your car. If you notice that the air pressure is low, you should immediately refill the tires to the pressure recommended by your car manufacturer, which is indicated on the inside of the driver's door.
Check the tread depth
All tires, whether summer, winter, or all-season, have deep grooves to ensure better grip on the road and to drain water from the street so that the car does not skid and to provide better control. Over time, the tread wears down and becomes smooth, causing the tires to lose traction and making driving difficult and sometimes even dangerous.

Don't neglect balancing and alignment
Balancing and aligning your tires is very important and necessary for their maintenance, as it ensures that the tread wear is even on all tires and that they run smoothly at high speeds without vibration.
Don't forget to rotate
Rotating tires means moving the front tires to the rear and vice versa, rotating them from left to right. Rotation ensures even tread wear on all tires, especially the inner and outer edges. Sometimes, wear is greater on the right side or on the front tires than on the rear tires, and rotation solves this problem.
Always stick to the speed limit
It is well known that high speeds contribute to faster tire wear than driving at normal or slow speeds, as hitting potholes, bumps, and road hazards at high speeds damages the internal and external structure of the tire, which may cause it to burst, especially if it is old or worn out.

Use matching tires
It is very important to use tires that are identical in size, type, and quality, especially on the front and rear, and to follow your car manufacturer's instructions so that you can drive safely and avoid any problems with control and stability due to differences in size or measurements.
Do not place unnecessary loads in the car
Do not place unnecessary additional loads in the car, as this will increase the load on the tires and many other parts, which will certainly lead to increased fuel consumption and damage to the tires, especially if they are old, in addition to making the car more difficult and less precise to control.
