Tires are one of the most important parts of your vehicle. From the ride quality to a vehicle's performance on the road, tires affect them all. At Ed Howard Mazda, making sure our customers get the right tires and keep them maintained is one of our top priorities. We want our customers to know their tires and to be able to get the service they want when they need it most.
Maintenance is a necessary part of any vehicle's life. To keep a car running, regular checkups are a must and highly recommended. That goes double for tires around Punta Gorda. Make sure to schedule an inspection with us so that our Mazda technicians can go over your vehicle and look for damage, uneven wear, and tire pressure. Going over these possible damages can benefit your vehicle's life span and keep your ride smooth and safe. Best of all, it can extend your vehicle's life.
  There are plenty of ways to tell if your tires are worn out. One such way is the penny test. Simply put, the penny test is designed to determine tread depth. Tread depth is typically measured in 32nds of an inch, and new tires typically measure 10/32 inches or 11/32 inches. A penny works as a measuring device by sliding it in the tread and measuring those 32nds of an inch. If you see all of Lincoln's face, that means you've hit the 2/32 inches mark, and it's time to replace your tires near North Port.
It is easy to overlook tire wear before it is too late. Make sure to keep up with tire maintenance. Your vehicle will thank you for it.
