The most important aspect of tire maintenance is proper inflation of
your tires. 75% of drivers wash their cars monthly while only 1 out of 7
(14%) correctly checks tire pressure. The air pressure should be
checked on all tires, including the spare, at least once a month. To
help you remember, sign
up for free monthly email reminders from TireSafety.com.
Regular rotation of your tires will also help prevent irregular and
premature wear. 40% of drivers have not rotated their tires within the
recommended interval of at least 8,000 miles. A healthy habit many
people follow is to rotate their tires with every oil change. This
section contains explanations
of various rotation methods.
Repair is the final area of maintenance covered in this area. There are
occasions where tires can be repaired and others where they should
not be. When in doubt about reparability consult your tire
professional.
Nitrogen Tire Inflation
Get lifetime nitrogen at $7.50 per tire.
NASA, the U.S. Military, Boeing, Indy, and NASCAR race teams use nitrogen in their tires, so why not you?
Nitrogen is an inert, dry, non-flammable gas that's all around us. The air we breathe is 78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen, and small amounts of other gasses.
With nitrogen, you get:
- Better pressure retention
- Improved handling
- Higher fuel economy
- Enhanced safety and reliability
- Longer tire life
Road Hazard Program
You drive a lot. It would be nice if every surface you drove on were perfectly paved. But this isn't always the case. The nails, glass, and potholes that you drive over from time to time help speed up the wear and tear of the treads. Sooner or later, you'll be driving a road hazard.
As a driver, you may want to consider the additional security and peace of mind that the Sonsio Road Hazard Program provides. Here are some good reasons to get Road Hazard coverage:
- Your damaged tire is NOT covered by the tire manufacturer's warranty.
- The cost of your tire repairs or tire replacement is covered.
- You're covered throughout the United States.
- You receive help to change your flat tire.
