Tire TipsNitrogen Inflation With all that you receive with your new set of tires at Terry’s Tire Town, you’d assume that we would include air. But, we don’t. In fact, every one of our tire customers drives away without any air in their tires at all! Using the latest technology available, Terry’s Tire Town inflates all tires with nitrogen instead. Tires inflated with nitrogen will hold tire pressure longer, which means better traction, safer operation and reduced risk of tire failure due to over-heated tires. In addition, tires inflated with nitrogen reduce fuel consumption as proper tire pressure improves rolling resistance; this results in improved gas mileage. Finally, nitrogen-inflation extends tire life. Properly inflated tires run at cooler temperatures and last longer. Tires inflated with nitrogen can last as much as 25% longer than tires inflated with air. "The response to our nitrogen-inflation technology has been overwhelming,” explains retail division manager Rex Pennington. "We quickly found that our customers understand and appreciate the benefits of nitrogen inflation. It will soon become the standard in the industry." Although everyone recognizes the value of nitrogen-inflation, Terry’s Tire Town remains the exclusive tire retailer in Stark County that offers the service.
Tire Rotation All car and tire manufacturers agree on rotating tires...and for good reason. Your tires will last longer and any irregular tire wear can be spotted and corrected before your tires are ruined. As been the case for many years, we know that front tires have a tendency to roll to the outside edge on turns causing outside edge wear if left on the front too long. Now, with front wheel drive vehicles, not only do we experience front tire wear but a wear pattern can also develop on the rear tires of many cars if not periodically rotated. Rechecking the balance of the tire when they are rotated is also a very good idea. Although the balance might not change every time they are rotated, it will change during the life of the tire due to either tire wear or the loss of a wheel weight. An out-of-balance tire will not only cause a ride vibration, but over time can cause a cupping wear or even bumps around the entire tire. Most tire manufacturers recommend rotating tires at 5,000-mile intervals. For those who purchased tires that have a manufacturer's mileage warranty, it is crucial to follow the manufacturer's rotation recommendations. That's why tire rotations, and re-balancing services, are always free for those who purchase tires at Terry's Tire Town. |
