Why is Tire Care Important? 

Your tires are your very first line of defense out on the open road. That’s why it’s so essential to keep them properly inflated, regularly check for signs of damage, and schedule routine tire rotations. By doing so, you can make sure your tires are wearing down at an even rate and protect your car’s alignment. 

It’s also why you’ll want to learn how to check your vehicle’s tire tread depth. When your tread gets too low, it won’t have the same grip on the road, which makes your vehicle less reliable over time. The good news is you can check your tire tread at home, and all you need is a penny.

The Penny Test

Our service experts are more than happy to check the tread depth of your new BMW when you come in for an appointment. However, it’s still a good idea to know how to check tread depth at home as well.

Grab a penny and place it face down into the groove of the tread. If you can see all of Lincoln’s forehead, your tread depth is too low and your tires need to be replaced. If his forehead is partially covered, your tires are still safe to drive on.
