How to Maintain Car Tires for Maximum Safety & Longevity

Maintaining car tires is crucial for ensuring safety, extending tire lifespan, and optimizing vehicle performance. At Qingdao Coop Tire Technology CO., LTD, a company under the renowned ZESTINO&LAKESEA GROUP, we understand the significance of proper tire maintenance. Firstly, regular tire pressure checks are essential. Incorrect tire pressure can lead to uneven wear, reduced fuel efficiency, and even blowouts. Use a reliable tire pressure gauge to check the pressure at least once a month, and inflate or deflate the tires to the manufacturer's recommended level. Secondly, tire rotation is vital. Due to varying weight distribution and driving patterns, tires wear differently on different axles. Rotating them every 5,000 - 7,500 miles helps distribute the wear evenly, prolonging their service life. Our company offers a wide range of tires, including MT off-road tires, RT tires, and more, all of which can benefit from proper rotation. Thirdly, keep an eye on the tire tread depth. The legal minimum tread depth in most regions is 1.6mm. Worn-out treads reduce traction, especially in wet or snowy conditions, increasing the risk of accidents. You can use a tread depth gauge or the penny test to check the depth. If the tread is close to the minimum, it's time to consider replacing the tires. Our Zestino brand is known for its high-quality motorsport tires, PCR tires, and TBR tires, which are designed to provide excellent grip and durability. Additionally, visual inspections are important. Look for signs of damage such as cuts, bulges, or punctures. These can weaken the tire structure and lead to sudden failures. If you notice any damage, have the tire inspected by a professional immediately. At our company, we have an independent R&D center with advanced lab test equipment. Our experienced engineering team can provide expert advice on tire maintenance and repair. We also offer customization services, so if you have specific tire requirements, we can design and produce tires that meet your needs. By following these maintenance tips, you can ensure that your car tires perform at their best, keeping you safe on the road and saving you money in the long run. Whether you're driving on highways or off-road terrains, proper tire maintenance is the key to a smooth and safe journey.
