(Beside MacDonaids) Tires deserve : your attention The only contact between your car and the road is your tires. They deserve attention for safety‘s sake. There is never a financially conâ€" venient time to buy a set of new tires, so start now to postpone that inevitable day with the tire salesâ€" man by using the following advice from the Automotive Parts & Acâ€" cessories Association: Even the best tires lose air. A good tire pressure gauge only costs a dollar or two. Check the inflation pressure of your tires, including the spare, once a week. _Never check inflation pressure except when the tires are cold. Even in a short distance, heat will build up the inflation pressure and give you a faulty reading. |__ _ 0 Check tires particularly often during seasonal tempaerature changes. Tires lose about a pound of pressure for every 10â€"degree drop in the temperature. Underinflation causes the edges of the tread to wear more rapidly. A tire will flex more and will run hotter. As with anything else on the car, heat is a tire‘s worst enemy. Overinflation is not as bad as underinflation. It makes the tread wear faster in the center and increases the danger of highâ€"speed impact damage. spenaored by the Autometve i Ansecioues / Canede WwATERLOO CHRONICLE, WEDNESDAY, MAY 13, 1981 â€" PAGE 25 The owner‘s manuals of today‘s cars usually are more reliable regarding tire pressure. Before 1966, it generally was a good idea to add four pounds to the car maker‘s recommendation because they preâ€" ferred a more comfortable ride for their customers at the expense of tire life. It is a good idea to add a couple pounds to the pressure recommendâ€" ed by the car makers if your car is carrying a heavy load or you do a considerable amount of highway driving. Curbs, potholes and other bumps in the road are bad for tires and shock absorbers. However, never hit the brakes when your car is in a pothole â€" the movement of the car helps it get the wheel up and out of the hole. Don‘t see how close to the curb you can park: curbs can be rough on sidewalls. Check the tread frequently for stones, nails and other foreign matter. Wipe off any grease or oil which reduces the life of the tire. As for rotating the tires, there is general agreement that it will extend their lives, but you will spend more than you save if you pay someone else to do it.
