Good tires have a major impact on how well your Subaru handles and can even affect the fuel economy of your vehicle. When you need new tires, the best place to go is your Subaru dealership.

Getting a flat isn’t the only time you need to replace your tires. If there are visible cracks or bulges on the sidewall of your tires, then your tires could have an air leak that could lead to a flat in the future. Consistently low tire pressure is another sign that your tire might be leaking. 

Another sign that you might need to replace your tires is a low tread. The tread wear indicator on your tire can be checked before you get on the road. Balding tires can be dangerous because of the lack of friction between your tires and the road, as well as the risk of getting a flat because of road debris. 

What Happens During Tire Service?

At your dealership, tire service usually involves inspecting the tread on your tires, rotating your tires, balancing your tires, aligning your wheels, and examining your suspension. If your tires need to be replaced, your mechanic will usually recommend replacing all four tires at once. You might need to replace your tires every four or five years. Tires should generally be rotated every six months. 

Which Tires Should You Buy?

It’s important to buy tires that meet your performance needs for the season. All-season tires are generally a good choice since they perform well in all climates, particularly if you don’t anticipate a hard winter or a hot summer. 

However, you may want to opt for winter tires in Oregon if you expect to be driving on snowy, icy, or slushy roads throughout the winter. Winter tires are made with a softer rubber material that maintains traction on slick roads and stays flexible even in frigid temperatures. 

What Are the Benefits of Buying Tires From Your Dealership?

When you buy tires from your local dealership, you can be confident that you are purchasing high-quality tires that will last for the next few years. Additionally, your Subaru dealer backs your tire purchase with a Subaru 24-Month Tire Protection Plan. This warranty plan will cover the repair or replacement of your tires for 24 months and comes with Subaru Tire Roadside Assistance. 

The tires on your vehicle play a vital role in the overall handling, performance, and safety of your Subaru. If your tires are damaged or your tread is running low, it might not be safe to drive. Book tire replacement service at Royal Moore Subaru today.
