Good Reasons to Be on the Lookout for Tire Service 

Tires should be maintained regularly and changed as needed to ensure vehicle performance and safety. Tires in good shape have improved traction, smoothness, and vehicle control. Other advantages to regular tire service include:

  • Better gas mileage: Get greater gas mileage by getting your tires aligned, rotated, and filled with the proper air pressure on a regular basis. Tires that are over- or under-inflated, unbalanced, or improperly installed can significantly reduce gas mileage 
  • A safer ride: A tire's likelihood of running flat or blowing out in traffic increases as it becomes older and more worn out. This can result in collisions, significant car damage, and even injury. Simply put, well-maintained tires are safer tires. 
  • Longer-lasting tires: Tires that are correctly inflated and regularly rotated are likely to last longer. Why? Because improper inflation and lack of rotating are two factors that can cause premature wearing on your tires.

Because we want to get you back on the road as soon and securely as possible at Matt Bowers Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, we don't require an appointment for Express Service including tire servicing. All you have to do is drop by our service facility whenever it is most convenient for you.

Tire Service for All Seasons? 

We have our fair share of bad weather in Baton Rouge. Tires to cope with the changing seasons are a good purchase for some drivers. Seasonal tires come in a variety of shapes and sizes.

  • All-Season Tires: As the name suggests, these tires can perform well in any weather. With mild snow, the tire balances wet and dry performance and can offer enough snow grip. On the other hand, more specialist tires could be a worthwhile purchase for drivers who frequently drive in extremely wet or snowy weather.
  • Summer Tires: Summer tires are primarily seen on high-performance cars and are meant to be utilized all year but only in locations where temperatures do not routinely drop below freezing.
  • Winter Tires: These tires are not designed for all-season usage but can provide considerably enhanced traction in winter conditions. They are designed for best performance on snow, ice, and wet roads. 
  • All-Terrain Tires: These off-road tires are made to grip rocks, gravel, and mud with ease. Although they may be used on the road, their distinctive tread pattern makes them unsuitable for concrete or asphalt.

Are you not sure which tires are needed for your vehicle? There are many factors to consider, but you can free to call the Matt Bowers Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram Service Department for tire advice from an expert. 

How Often Do I Need Tire Service? 

One of the first inquiries we get is how frequently a Vehicle owner should get their tires serviced. The truth is that several tire services must be performed at various intervals. While many factors influence how often you should have the following tire services performed, there are some basic guidelines to follow:

  • Tire rotation is recommended every 5,000 to 8,000 miles 
  •  If your tires are older than five years, you should get them examined once a year 
  • Depending on the manufacturer's recommendations, tires should be replaced every 25,000 to 50,000 miles 
  • On cars that are driven often, tires should be aligned every two or three years 
  • Get tire service if you notice damage as a result of hitting a large pothole or curb

Recommended intervals for tire service are related not just to the vehicle you have and the tires on it but also to the manner you drive your vehicle. Because the recommended service intervals might vary greatly, don't hesitate to contact the Matt Bowers Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram Service staff for assistance in creating a maintenance schedule for your vehicle. 

The age of your tires 

While the miles you put on your tires are one of the most telling factors about whether or not it is time to replace them, the age of the tires is important too. Older tires are more likely to fail because tires are comprised of rubber that deteriorates over time. 

An aged tire's fracture resistance decreases a time goes on, leading to a higher rate of tire failure. As tires age, oxygen enters the rubber, causing it to begin to degrade at the molecular level. The rubber loses its flexibility and strength as it hardens and becomes brittle. 

The tire's capacity to carry weight is diminished at a certain point, and it may fail. Even if a tire has never been serviced or has not been used often, it has been exposed to time and the weather, resulting in its integrity being damaged. 

The DOT number printed on the sidewall of every tire produced for street usage may be used to establish the age of a tire. 

Tires should be replaced every 6-10 years, according to most tire and car manufacturers. We recommend changing any tire that is six years or older than the date of manufacture. 

A good look at your tires' tread 

If your tires' tread is visibly reduced, you should have your tires replaced, serviced, or rotated. But how do you know if the tread is too shallow? 

In the United States, tire tread depth is measured in 32nds of an inch, and many states require that you replace them when they reach 2/32". When your tires have deteriorated to that depth, the US Department of Transportation advises that you replace them. 

How does this compare to new tires? On average, new tires come with 10/32" to 11/32" of original tread depth. Everyday driving wears the tread down over time, but uneven wear can occur owing to poor driving habits and a lack of tire rotation, among other reasons. Once again, this is why regular tire service is so important. 

Checking Your Tires Tread 

One of the simplest methods to keep track of a tire's lifespan is to look at its tread. But how do you know how deep your tire is? Treadwear bars on certain tires show when the tread depth hits 2/32". However, the "penny test" is the most straightforward technique to assess the depth of your tire's tread. 

The penny test is a simple and accurate method of determining tire tread depth. Start by placing a penny between the tire tread blocks, upside down and facing you, with Lincoln's head facing you. Your tires have more than 2/32" of tread if Lincoln's head is even partially buried. If the head is visible, your tires should be changed. 

If your tires pass the penny test, visually check the tread of a tire for any additional problems. There are six different forms of uneven wear to watch for, but the two most frequent are:

  1. Over-inflation causes tires to wear down the center 
  2. Under-inflation causes the tire sides to wear down faster than the center

How Much Should I Expect to Pay for Tire Service Near Me? 

The cost of tire service is highly dependent on the services provided and the type of tires you have. For example, if you have a small tire puncture to be fixed, it will be far less expensive than replacing all four tires. Please feel free to contact the Matt Bowers Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram staff for a quote depending on your car and needs. 

We can ask a few questions, gather a little bit of information, and give you a general idea of how much you can expect to spend. Note that we can only give a true estimate once we have seen the vehicle and tires in person. 

How much should new tires cost? 

There are many different types of tires on the market, ranging from low-cost to high-performance. New tire prices are determined by the following factors:

  • The tire dimensions 
  • Your vehicle's model number 
  • The cost of installation 
  • Additional warranties you may wish to add 
  • The number of tires that need to be replaced 
  • The tire brand

Remember that replacing both rear tires and/or both front tires simultaneously is nearly always preferable to replacing one at a time. 

You and your passengers are at a higher risk of a blowout or accident if you put off tire servicing due to the cost. Because of this, we provide financing for all tire purchases.
