One morning, as you walk up to your car, you notice that your tire’s tread isn’t what it used to be, and you see that you may need new tires. Where do you start? Purchasing tires can be an expensive investment. Do you really need to purchase new tires, or can you have your current tires repaired or rotated? Even though you should have your tires rotated every 6,000 miles (or every other oil change), it’s recommended that you perform the “Penny Test” on your tires at home. Place a penny, head first, in the groove of your tires. If you’re able to see the top of Lincoln’s head, you should consider replacing your tires.

So, if you need new tires, where should you start? Replacing tires is never a cheap expense. You want to make sure that you’re going to invest in tires that will last you at least 5 years.
