Tires and tire repair
MAKE SURE YOUR TIRES ARE SAFE AND RELIABLE.
There are several different situations that can cause either a rapid leak or one of those annoying slow leaks.
Rapid Leak (Puncture from road hazards (nails, potholes)
Penetrating Object
When it comes to things that cause holes in tires our technicians have seen it all – a four inch heel from a ladies shoe, a 17mm wrench, a railroad spike, a bone etc.
Slow Leak (Wheel bead damaged or value stem needs replacement)
Bead Leak
This is a leak that happens around the edge of the wheel where the tire attaches. It can be caused by a corroded wheel or debris not allowing the tire to make an airtight seal.
Sidewall Damage
Scraping or bumping into a curb can weaken the side of your tire causing it to slowly lose air. These ones can sometimes be invisible from the outside of the tire too.
Change Overs&Swaps
When should you remove your winter tires? When the temperatures are above seven degrees Celsius, a snow tire wears faster. To get the most bang for your buck and maximum life from your tires, you should put away the winters when the temperatures remain consistently above seven degrees in your area With each seasonal tire service, a changeover or a swap, our expert tire technicians will get you back on the road, driving safely and smoothly.
