When you're driving and maneuvering at speed, your tires are the only part of your car in firm contact with the road. As such, car tires must always be kept in tip-top condition with regular checks and rotations. Just as importantly, you should know when it's time to have a new set of tires installed. With this in mind, here are five key signs that you need to visit your local CDJR dealership right away for new tires. Road Noise and Vibrations A significant uptick in road noise and vibrations often indicates problems with the tires or suspension. You might notice tires that are weakened, uneven, or potentially punctured. It's best to ask a trusted technician to diagnose and repair the underlying issue. more Cuts, Cracks, or Bulges If any of your tires are clearly damaged, consider replacing them at once. Long, deep cuts or gashes in the treads or sidewalls often spell the end of a tire. Likewise, bulges or blisters caused by internal damage usually mean the tire must go. Too many cracks or particularly large cracks in the sidewalls can also make a tire unfit for continued safe use. Excessive Unevenness It's natural for car tires to wear down unevenly, which is why regular tire rotations are so important. However, if your tires ever become so uneven that even rotation can't resolve the problem, you'll need to have the full set replaced. Overly Shallow Tread Depths Tire treads gradually wear down over time. Most tires start with about 10/32 or 11/32 of an inch in tread depth when new. Your tires will eventually diminish to 2/32 of an inch, which means the treads have become too shallow to securely maintain traction on all road surfaces. Persistently Escaping Air It's vital for tires to be kept at optimal pressure, as recommended in your owner's manual. While checking your tire's air pressure once or twice a month, take heed if a tire is persistently losing air. It might have a hidden puncture or embedded object that needs to be removed and repaired. You might also need a replacement tire. Rotate or Replace Your Tires at Your Local Dealership Tires typically need to be rotated twice a year and replaced every four to five years. The technicians at your local dealership can help keep an eye on your tires and let you know how much longer they're likely to last. They can also promptly replace your tires when required. Visit Allways Atascosa Dodge Chrysler Jeep Ram in Pleasanton, TX, to have a new set of tires installed today. We've been proudly serving the drivers of the local community with top-notch cars and customer service for over 20 years.

When it comes to replacement parts, you have two options to consider: original equipment manufacturer (OEM) parts or aftermarket parts. As your trusted Dodge dealer, our commitment is to exclusively utilize OEM parts. We'll delve into why selecting OEM parts for your CDJR repairs is the superior option for your Dodge vehicle. They're Made for Your Car OEM components are identical to the original parts used to build your Dodge. They come off the same production lines, meet the same quality checks, and function the same as the old parts they're replacing. Each of these parts was designed and engineered to fit your car, and this means that no adjustments are needed to install an OEM replacement part. more Aftermarket parts, on the other hand, aren't designed for your car. They're designed to fit a wide variety of different vehicle makes and models. These parts might look similar, but since they're designed for many different vehicles, they may not fit correctly. We don't use these parts, but independent mechanics may offer them to you as a cheaper alternative to genuine parts. They're High Quality OEM components for your Dodge are the result of countless hours of design and engineering. They're made from the highest quality materials to give them strength and durability. OEM components cost more than aftermarket parts, but you save even more in the long term as they need replacement less frequently. Aftermarket parts are cheaper and this can make them seem like a good deal. However, they cost less because they are often made from lower-quality materials. Lower-quality materials don't have the durability of genuine OEM components and will fail much faster. Overall, aftermarket parts will cost you more as they have to be replaced sooner than OEM parts would be. They Have Warranties All Dodge OEM components carry warranties. If the part fails under normal usage conditions, it will be replaced for free. In addition, in the unlikely event of a problem with the part due to labor or material defect, the part will also be replaced. These warranties are possible because these parts meet recognized national and international standards. Aftermarket components, in contrast, don't have warranties. They're not designed for your car, so the manufacturers can't guarantee how long the part will last. If an aftermarket part fails, you will have to buy a replacement. There are many other reasons why OEM components are the best choice for your Dodge. As a dealer, we will not use aftermarket parts as their quality and durability are doubtful. We won't compromise the safety of you or your car by using anything less than the best. Visit us today at Allways Atascosa DCJR for your OEM components.
