Tires are essential parts of all motor vehicles. They provide structure and stability, allow the car to move smoothly, and maintain traction on the road. When old ones start to wear down or outlive their natural life span, however, new tires are an absolute necessity. Here are a few reasons why.

Why Get New Tires?

1. Maintain Safety

Damaged or worn tires have a greater likelihood of blowing out. When a tire blows, a driver can quickly lose control of the vehicle and get into an accident. Old tires often have worn treads as well, which result in the tires being less efficient at gripping the road. A blowout or accident on a remote road or at an off-peak traffic hour could leave the driver and passengers stranded, putting their safety further at risk.

2. Improve Vehicle Performance

A car is a system of interconnected parts that work together to make the vehicle move. When one of those parts fails, the others can't work as well—or sometimes at all. For instance, the most high-powered engine or sophisticated braking system won’t offer full performance benefits if the tires are old or damaged. An engine can supply all the power in the world, but it doesn't make much difference if the tires can’t translate that power to movement.

3. Increase Comfort

Since new tires have thick, even treads, the car moves smoothly and comfortably. Old tires often have wear patterns that make the ride bumpy or uneven. Also, as tire technology advances from year to year, new versions are designed with maximum rider comfort in mind.
