What Makes Up A Wheel?

A wheel is composed of the inner spokes, the rim that connects the spokes and the outside tire. Wheels are connected by an axle so they can work in pairs to allow your vehicle to move. The tread on the tires protects the inner portion of the rim and helps the wheel grip the road to increase safety and efficiency. Without wheels, your car would not be able to function. This is why keeping on top of tire rotation service and other maintenance is so important. To learn more about wheels and how they work, contact Meineke #77 in Queens Village, NY.

Why Are Your Tires So Important?

The question of "why are tires so important?" typically comes up when the need for a tire repair shop arises. It is a question that deserves some thought. Nearly every aspect of your vehicle's performance, including braking, acceleration, steering, traction, and handling, are all largely dependent on tire performance. Issues with the tread, balance, or stability of your tires and wheels could affect your control of your vehicle in an emergency situation. Thus, if you suspect any problems, you should visit Meineke #77 in Queens Village, NY for repair or tire change service right away.

What Are The Signs Telling You Tire Repair Is Needed?

Uneven tread heights and issues with vehicle stability at high speeds could each be a sign that you're in need of a tire repair or tire change service. However, these signs are often easy to miss. Fortunately, you vehicle will often tell you when its tires need some TLC through your in-dash tire pressure light. If and when it turns on, you should immediately stop and see which of your tires is over or underinflated. If the sensor continues to illuminate even after adding air to the tire, taking it into Meineke #77 in Queens Village, NY may help you avoid a high tire replacement cost. Be sure to check and see if you also need a tire pressure sensor replacement while you're there.

Consequences of Poor Maintenance

Neglecting to inspect or replace your tires can be dangerous in the long-run. If your tires are worn down, you may have difficulties handling your vehicle during adverse weather. Sleet, rain, and ice can easily send a vehicle with little tread spinning. During rainstorms, your vehicle will be more susceptible to hydroplaning, and you may experience longer stopping times and distances. Both of these issues have the potential to cause severe injury to drivers and passengers. Naturally, we want to help you avoid such situations. Contact our Queens Village, NY, and Meineke #77 to schedule a professional inspection of your tires.

How Do You know When to Get New Tires?

Your tires will typically give you plenty of notice that you should look into tire replacement or repair. Low tire tread is a serious problem that can only be solved through replacing the affected tire and its twin. Cracking, noticeable wear on only one side of the tire and vibration coming through the steering wheel are all indicators that you should have your tires inspected by a professional. If you do not replace your tires promptly, they could pop while you are driving. Taking your car to Meineke #77 in Queens Village, NY for a full tire inspection and tire repair is the best option for safe driving.
