This is why you should check you Tyres daily. You may have large, wide Tyres on your vehicle but there is only a small amount touching the road.    Be sure its a good bit!.

2 FALSE

Tyre pressure lowers the colder it gets and increases with heat. roughly 1 pound every 10 degrees.

3 TRUE

The 14 is the wheel diameter.

Ace Auto Services can source and supply alloy and specialist wheels here and in America.

4 TRUE

Too much air will make the tyre wear excessively in the middle.

With regular FREE tyre checks from Ace Auto Services YOU wont have to worry about that.

5 TRUE

But not enough for the AA & the RAC who recommend a minimum tread depth of 2 millimeters.

Ace Auto Services will be happy to keep you out of the way of the long arm of the law.

6 TRUE

Most people know about under inflated Tyres, but don't realize that overloading has the same effect. (premature failure)

The tyre experts at Ace Auto Services can recommend and supply the right tyre for the job.

7 TRUE

Every time your Tyres squeal you effectively lose 100 miles of tread

All the more reason for regular checks, and maybe a more gentle driving style. 

8 FALSE

Tyre pressures should be checked COLD therefore they should be done BEFORE the trip.

If you are taking a long trip the whole vehicle will benefit from Ace Auto Services

FREE check and top up's.

9 TRUE

Tyres are designed with ribs that disperse the water and keep as much of the tyre in contact with the road as possible. With little or no tread it will act just like a water ski.

The tyre may be wide, but the "footprint" (The part that touches the ground) is much smaller. Be sure its in good order with an Ace Auto Services tyre check 

10 FALSE

It is more important to come to a halt safely than quickly, better to ruin a tyre than cause an accident.

Ace Auto Services can repair or replace any make and style of tyre, large or small, 4x4 or hi-speed.

wheel barrow, quad bike and much more.
