Car wheels
Your car wheels are the only things on your vehicle that
have direct contact with the road and you have a lot riding on them,
literally. Any blowout or damage caused by neglect could cost you thousands
of dollars in repairs, not to mention harm to you and your passengers.
What are some basic methods of caring for my car wheels?
• Check the air pressure regularly
• Repair tires if only if there is damage to the flat tread. If
the damage is toward the outside (curved) part of the wheel, you will
need to replace it completely.
• Use a soft brush when cleaning your tires; do not use specialty
cleaners.
Damage to your car wheels can be the result of low air pressure. When
the tires become low, the weight of the vehicle can cause the rims to
inflict damage on the tires. Correct air pressure will also increase
the fuel efficiency of your car.
