Don’t worry — the service team here at D&D Motors is here to help. Below, we’ve listed some of the frequently asked questions we hear at our service center. Take a look at our answers to learn more about choosing the right tires for your ride. As always, you can come and chat with our tire experts anytime, and they’ll be happy to answer any questions you may have.
Are all tires the same?
No. Just like there are many types of drivers, there are many types of tires meant for a variety of situations. There are tires for wet or dry traction, high speed control, high mileage, steering response, ride comfort or all of the above. When you visit us, we’ll learn about your lifestyle and needs in order to recommend the perfect set of tires for you.
What should I look for in a tire?
This depends on the kind of performance you need from your tires. By talking to us about your needs, you’ll help us determine what type of tires would be best for you. We’ll ask about your driving habits, how long you plan to keep your vehicle and what you expect from your tires.
How can I tell when it’s time to replace my tires?
It’s simple — just use the penny test. Grab a penny and insert it into the groove of your tire with Lincoln’s profile upside down. If your tires still have deep tread, the top of Lincoln’s head will disappear. If you can see the top of Lincoln’s head, your tire is worn down and close to being bald — meaning, it’s time for a new set of tires.
Do I really need to rotate my tires?
Yes. Having your tires rotated regularly helps them to wear down evenly, which can, in turn, help you avoid a blowout. Visit us for regular tire rotations to avoid uneven tire wear.
Why should I buy my tires from a dealership?
