Tire Service
Kwik Kar is proud to introduce our Professional Tire Services. We now offer a full selection of new tires to meet the needs of all of our customers whether it’s a commercial vehicle, the family SUV or a performance coupe, we have it all. Feel free to call or come by to receive a free quote. We also offer tire flat repairs, rotation and balance.
Your vehicle’s tires should be replaced if:
- Any portion of the tread is worn to the ‘wear indicator bars’—lateral bars molded into the tire grooves at about 20 percent of their new tread depth—or to a depth, as measured in a groove, of 1/16th inch or less.
- Tread wear is severely uneven (in which case have the wheel alignment checked) or the center is worn much more than the edges (be more vigilant about tire pressures).
- The tire sidewalls are severely cracked or there are bulges anywhere on the tire.
- There is any indication of tread separation from the tire carcass.
- The tire has been punctured and cannot be satisfactorily repaired.
