Keeping Your Car Tyres Ready For Summer – A Point Which Most Drivers Neglect

However, to enjoy such spontaneous trips to the fullest, your car must be in good condition. And not just for vacation, but for your everyday ride too, the car requires special attention in this hot weather, ignoring which can make your travel an unpleasant experience and put an unnecessary burden on your pocket.

Tyres, the parts which come into direct contact with roads while driving, need to be maintained well and get regularly checked at the tyre service centre North Melbourne.

Steps expert car mechanics in North Melbourne suggest for your tyres

We have given a rundown of the tips you can follow for keeping your car or truck tyres in the best condition throughout the summer.

1. Tyre Inflation: Before stepping out of your house, see that all the tyres of your car have the right amount of air pressure, i.e., they are neither under-inflated nor over-inflated, using Tire Pressuring Monitoring System (TPMS). This practice is useful for not just in summer, but the whole year, as proper inflation increases the lifespan of the tyres. In hot climate, it tend to get heated after long hours of driving, so you need to keep an eye on that.                                                                                                       
2. Tyre Tread: With a tyre having a worn-out tread, you cannot achieve the required grip on the road surface. And if the Mother Nature showers unexpected rain in the city, you might have a real hard time moving your car on the roads. Therefore, check the tyres for tread depth and uneven wearing (which can be due to improper wheel alignment), without fail. ‘20p test’ is an easy method to assess tyre tread depth.                                                                                                                                                           
3. Wheel balancing: Tyre rotation and wheel balancing go hand-in-hand. Hence, whenever you rotate the tyres of your car, get the wheel balancing checked and have wheels rebalanced if required. Moreover, in hot temperatures, if it get damaged due to overheating, wheel balancing becomes necessary. Balanced and aligned wheels make your drive safe and smooth.                                                                                                                                                                       
4. Spare tyre: Despite taking all preventive measures and necessary care, the tyre can turn from a friend to a foe in the middle of the road, leaving you irritated and worried. Hence, it is a wise decision to keep a spare tyre in the car whenever you are driving, so that you don’t have to wait for someone to come and help you out. However, if it happens to you (unfortunately), mobile tyre-fitting centres in Australia can come to your rescue.
