How familiar are you with your automobile's tread and tread ribs? It is a common feature on nearly everyone's vehicle. It also makes driving under wet conditions much easier than cars with extensive damage on the tread linings. Bad tread is often touted as the best way to know if it's time to get an overhaul. However, tires can also show many other visible signals of needing new wheels.

The rubber on bad tires will be ragged in appearance. Random pieces of the tire will tend to fall off, especially when driving in dry conditions. If the car is not used very often, severe flaking and rot will develop around the outer edges of the sidewalls and spread to the rubber around the hubcaps.

Drivers are advised to have car service completed promptly when such damages are observed. For tire replacement and other automobile fixes, Porsche Bethesda excels at offering new tires with great tread and impressive traction. Visit us in North Bethesda, MD when the time is right.
