When do you believe it is time to buy new tires? Every year or two? Maybe you go according to a maintenance schedule, or by wear. The decision to get new rubber for your ride can vary. If you purchase a used vehicle, more than likely the tires are used too. Would it be a good idea to purchase a set of tires then? Personally, when I have purchased a used vehicle that is one of the first things I do so I know where I stand for my own peace of mind. Then I try to go by what is recommended.
After purchasing a new set of tires it is recommended that you replace them in 6-10 years. The environment, weather conditions, wear, and chemical elements all factor in the life a tire. Maintaining even wear by getting regular tire balancing, and rotations are important for stability. Driving on tires that are in poor shape can affect the performance of your vehicle.
To make life a little easier, be sure to check the manufacturers maintenance recommendations for the type of tire you purchase. Happy driving!
