[ "A SIMPLE GUIDE TO TYRE MAINTENANCEOwning a piece of machinery does not mean that you keep deriving value from it to the point it's non-functional. An important aspect of owning the same is making sure that it is well taken care of because if that isn't done, it will not deliver the performance you expect it to. The same goes for your cars and all their componentsTyres, especially, have to be given extra care, as they are the component that comes in contact with the surface of the road. However, if you maintain them they will be able to perform until the day it is time to replace them. A few signs that hint at tyre replacement is when your vehicle cannot cut corners as smoothly as it used to or even drive on wet roads well enoughFrom maintaining the right pressure to constantly checking the tread, these are just two of the many things that should be on your checklist when you are giving your car and especially your Michelin Tyres Nottingham their monthly check. A simple reason why you should inspect your tyres now and then is that there might be a few minor faults disrupting the balance of your vehicle but may not be detectable. However, if you check your Tyres regularly you might be able to determine the point of deterioration and nip it in the bud before it gets too lateTHE RIGHT TYRE PRESSURE:;Why do people stress so much over maintaining the correct tyre pressure in your tyres? The simple reason is that even if your tyres are inflated according to the ideal pressure limits, they will still lose pressure at 1 pound per square inch every month and this rate just keeps increasing with a temperature rise. Therefore, it is important to check the tyre pressure with tools such as a pressure gauge that can be available at all garages. If your tyre pressure reads less on the gauge, it is best to have them filled with a home compressor or at a local garage. Repeat the process on all tyres and if you notice any recurring issues such as a slow leak, reach out to the garageLastly, one must always remember that inflation pressure is important as underinflated tyres can lead to punctures whilst an overinflated tyre can affect the balance of your vehicle.WHY SHOULD YOU ROTATE YOUR TYRES?Every time your vehicle drives 10,000km to 12,000 km, it is recommended to rotate tyres so that the wear on each tyre becomes even. Even wear on your tyres can help in extending the validity and lifespan of your tyre in addition to obtaining good handling and tractionThe tyres at front of your vehicle tend to wear out faster than the tyres placed at the rear, so if you change them now and then, they will end up wearing out evenly. Therefore, every time your oil is required to change, that is every 10,000 to 12,000km, you should, ideally, rotate your tyres as well. Additionally, driving on roads with heavy loads or driving for long distances can also put an extra strain on your tyres which means your rotations should be more frequent than compared to those of othersThe next question that comes to mind is, can one rotate their tyres themselves? Ideally, your tyres must be fit just right to function properly so it is recommended to not take a risk and have a professional work on them instead. However, if you are confident and have ample experience, it can be a task that can very easily be done yourselfTREADWEARLastly, comes the most important portion of the tyre; the tread, or the portion that comes in contact with the surface of the road. The legal limit for a tyre tread depth is 3mm, if your tyre depth has worn below 2mm, you should have your tyres replaced immediatelySometimes, small objects can end up getting stuck in the tread of your tyres, when this happens, make sure that you take them out of the grooves carefully without causing any harm to the structure of the treadIf you notice wear on the edges of your tyres, check for inflation and any leaksThese are just some of the things that should be kept in mind when giving your Tyres Nottingham an inspection.
