Fair questions.

Worn tread blocks with cracked, shallow grooves between them

Grooves this shallow and cracked mean it's time.

Do I need an appointment?

Not for flats or a tread check. For new tires, booking means we have your size on the rack before you arrive.

How long does a set of four take?

About 45 minutes to mount and balance, 75 with an alignment. There's coffee and a bench by the window.

When should I replace my tires?

At 2/32 of an inch of tread, which is when the wear bars sit flush with the tread. Or at six years old, whatever the tread says. The four-digit date code on the sidewall tells you the week and year it was made.

Can you fix a nail in the tread?

Usually, yes. If it's in the tread and smaller than a quarter inch, we patch it from inside. A hole in the sidewall can't be repaired safely.

Why is my tire pressure light on?

Cold mornings drop pressure about 1 PSI for every 10 degrees. If it stays on after you top up, a sensor may be dead. We test them for free.

Do I have to replace all four?

Not always. Two at a time is fine on most front or rear drive cars. All-wheel drive usually needs four so the diameters match.
