• Never attempt to mount your own tires
– Improper tire mounting may lead to severe injuries due to potential tire explosions. There are set procedures and measurements to be maintained when mounting the tires and you have to make sure that everything is done correctly. Always ensure that you lubricate the tire contact surfaces. Do not forget the beads and avoid applying volatile substances to bead seating.
• Regularly check your tires for wear
– All new tires have tread wear indicators that help inform you when the treads wear out. They generally appear as smooth banks in the grooves when they become worn. It becomes noticeable when they wear to the 16cm level. Keep in mind that the more the tires wear out, the more susceptible they are to penetration.
• Check tires for damage
– This act prioritizes safety. You don’ t need to risk an accident by using a damaged vehicle on the road. Check tires for damage at least once a month to ensure everything is in working condition.
