Discover How to Inspect Your Tires from the Team at Bob Rohrman Schaumburg Ford

People who are wondering whether they need new tires can actually conduct a few experiments from the comfort of their Chicagoland area home that might answer the question. There are a few ways that you can look at tread depth and wear to see if you might need new tires.

One of the most famous tests for tire tread depth is the penny test. All you need to do is take a penny and insert it into your tire’s tread groove with Lincoln’s head upside down and facing you. If you can see all of the Lincoln’s head, it is time to purchase new tires.

You can also run a similar test with a quarter. To run this test, you need to place the quarter upside down in your tread groove, facing you. If the tread touches the top of Washington’s head, you don’t need to buy new tires.

Another thing you may want to pay attention to is the tire tread indicator. Many tires have an indicator that lets you know when you should replace the tire.
