The Importance Of Proper Tire Maintenance
Your tires play one of the most important parts in your vehicle’s safety, performance, and fuel efficiency. They’re responsible for maintaining traction in various weather conditions, supporting your vehicle’s weight, and absorbing road shocks. Well maintained tires provide better traction, shorter stopping distances, and improved handling in all weather conditions. They also contribute to a smoother ride and better fuel economy. If you have ever been unlucky enough to experience the horrifying feeling of a tire popping on the freeway you know that bad tires can lead to frustrating consequences. Not only are dangerous blowouts possible but reduced handling and poor fuel economy are common too.
Since tires wear down over time there are many things that can affect how they perform. Road conditions, driving habits, and even climate can impact tire wear. That’s why regular tire maintenance is not just recommended, it’s essential for your safety and your vehicle’s longevity.

Tire Inspections
Regular inspections are a great way to catch potential issues before they become serious. When your car is at the shop we perform thorough visual and hands-on inspections of your tires. We check for things like proper inflation and tire pressure, tread depth, uneven wear patterns, and signs of damage to make sure we can fix any issues before they become dangerous or costly problems.
Tire Rotations
Regular tire rotations are an important part of maintenance to make sure that tires are wearing evenly across all four over time. This not only extends the life of the tires and saves you money on needing early replacements, but also makes sure you have consistent handling and traction. Uneven wear on tires can lead to things like hydroplaning, heat buildup, unsafe handling in snow, inconsistent air pressure, and tire blowouts. Our shop recommends have tire rotations done every 5,000 to 8,000 miles, depending on your vehicle and driving habits.
Wheel Balancing
Make sure your vehicle has balanced wheels is important for a smooth ride and even tire wear. If you’re feeling vibrations or hearing weird sounds at certain speeds, it could mean that it is time for a wheel balance. We have the proper tire mounting and balancing equipment to make sure we get it right every time.

As transparency is one of B3nji’s core values we want to avoid surprises. Keep in mind if you’re getting tires swapped out, our shop does have a tire disposal fee included on the quote if you don’t want to dispose of them yourself.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Service
Modern vehicles are equipped with TPMS sensors to alert you of low tire pressure. This neat system will turn a dashborad light on when it senses that one or more tires aren”t at the recommended pressure. Often times this could be as simple as a topping up the air in your tires, or a leak. In the event it is the sensor itself, we can diagnose and repair TPMS issues to make sure this crucial safety and convenience feature is working correctly.
