Tire Installations

Tires play a crucial role in connecting your vehicle to the road surface. As an essential component of your vehicle's suspension system, they transmit the forces of driving, steering, and braking to ensure a smooth and safe ride. While tire maintenance is often overlooked, it is vital for optimal performance. At West Coast Tire, our dedicated staff is here to assist you with tire care and maintenance, providing services such as tire rotation, balance, and alignment.

Understanding the basics of tire care is key to getting the most out of your tires. Our knowledgeable staff will guide you through important aspects, including tire sidewall markings, determining the right time to purchase new tires, and selecting the perfect set for your vehicle. We prioritize maximizing tire mileage and tread wear, allowing you to enjoy a comfortable and efficient driving experience.

The benefits of our tire services extend beyond longevity. Poor tire inflation and improper rotation can lead to premature tire wear. Underinflated tires with flexible sidewalls wear out faster, while overinflated tires cause excessive center tread wear. Wheel balancing can alleviate symptoms of improper wear, but alignment issues may also be at play. During tire repair, our skilled staff will assess your situation and determine whether balancing or rotation can address your specific needs.

At West Coast Tire, we emphasize the importance of proper tire inflation standards recommended by manufacturers during new tire installations. This attention to detail ensures reduced tread movement, improved water dissipation, lower rolling resistance, optimal traction, and reliable load carrying capabilities. Our tire services promote enhanced fuel economy and extended tread life, offering you the best value for your investment.
