Rubber to the road

Near or far, your tires take you there. But, have you looked to see if they’re properly inflated, rotated and have even tread? Your local Jiffy Lube® can run all the checks and balances, guaranteeing your tires stand the test of time.

Check your tread

Who says pennies aren’t useful? Put them to work by measuring your tire tread–here’s how:

  • Grab a penny, “heads” side facing down
  • Place it into your tire grooves
  • If you can see the top of the head, it’s time to get new tires

Look for wear bars

Newer tires are designed with a wear indicator. You’ll notice a cross tire pattern form when the tires are worn to the specified safe level.

When you see this, it’s a clear sign that your tires should be replaced. Luckily, Jiffy Lube® carries the top tire brands and offers all the services needed to keep them in solid condition.

Other signs your tires have hit the end of the road include:

  • Prominent wear on either edge of the tread
  • Prominent wear in the middle of the tread
  • Bubbles or bulges appearing
  • Having to inflate your tires often
  • Cracking along the sidewall
  • Objects (screws, nails, etc.) piercing through the tire
