Your tires do a tough job, transferring all the power generated by your Subaru car to the road and staying inflated no matter the rough roads ahead. To keep your daily drive feeling smooth, don’t forget about Subaru tire service, especially if you like to head off-road. Check for these signs of issues and make an appointment at Mid-Hudson Subaru for a smooth ride for years to come.
Pay Attention to Pressure
We get massive swings in temperature here in New York, and your tires are just as responsive to hot days and cold months as you are. Tire pressure changes about 1 PSI for every 10 degree change in weather, so if you haven’t tested them since the seasons changed, you may be dangerously over- or under-inflated. Use an air pressure gauge to make sure the tires are within the range in the manual and adjust as needed.
Get Regular Rotations
When tires spend too long on the front or rear axle, they start to develop their own patterns of wear. That means your car can start pulling to one side, which can be frustrating or even dangerous. Don’t skip any tire rotations in your maintenance calendar to evenly distribute wear and keep your tires going longer.
Don’t Forget about Alignment
Drivers are often surprised as to how much of a difference even a slight misalignment can make. When your tires are either “pigeon-toed” (pointing in) or “duck-footed” (pointing out), your performance suffers and you may feel a pull to one side. Misaligned tires also hurt your fuel efficiency, so regular tire alignments will pay off in the long run.
