Your tires endure an incredible amount of wear and tear as you drive. After all, they experience a lot of friction and bear your vehicle’s weight. 

Because new ones can be costly, it is important to take care of your tires and get the best value for your money.

One of the ways you can maximize the lifespan of your tires is to maintain optimal air pressure. Over- or under-inflation of your tires will lead them to wear unevenly and do so at a faster rate. The wrong air pressure levels also put your safety at risk because tires not inflated properly are more likely to go flat.

Check your owners’ manual to find out the ideal air pressure for your model. For tire maintenance and other vehicle needs, visit any Walser dealership Service Department.
