[ LEARN MORE IN OUR AUTO SIMPLE BLOG<\/a> ]<\/strong><\/p>\n We know automotive service and maintenance gives a lot of people anxiety, but fear not \u2013 checking the tread on your tires is actually really easy. All you need is a penny and your eyes. More specifically, all you need to do is put the penny in your tire\u2019s tread grooves to see how much of Lincoln\u2019s head you can see. If you can\u2019t see much of his head, then you \u2013 and your tires \u2013 are in good shape. If you can see the majority of his head or more, it\u2019s time for new tires. Just remember to make sure to do this in multiple points on each tire.<\/p>\n There are two main elements that affect your tires and their performance \u2013 heat and age. Everyone here in Chattanooga, TN, knows how hot it can get, and that heat can play a big role in the degradation of your tires. That, combined with age, can cause your tires to wear down more quickly. With that in mind, no matter how well the penny test goes, you should look into getting a new set of tires before yours hit 10 years old.<\/p>\n And if you\u2019re in need of a high-quality used car, truck or SUV<\/a>, please contact our staff<\/a> here at Auto Simple in Chattanooga, TN.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" How Do I Know When I Need to Replace My Tires?
