Did you know that the easiest way to tell if your tires are worn is to check the tread? All you need is a penny. To check your tires, you’ll place the penny between the tread and look for Lincoln’s head to show above the tread. If you can see the president’s head, then your treads are considerably worn and it’s time to get new tires.
At Capitol Chevrolet, we help drivers protect their tires by checking their tire pressure and replacing old tires with the best brands. You can find all-season tires that last up to 10 years at our Salem, OR location. It’s important to always check that your tires are in good condition and that your tire pressure is accurate before going on long trips as well.
Tire blowouts are scary, but you can steer clear of them by checking your tires regularly and replacing worn tires when the treads are too low. Our friendly service team is here to help and get you back on the road whenever your tires are in need of service.
