How Often Do I Need To Look at Tire Pressure and Tread Depth?
You really should regularly inspect your vehicle's tire pressure because all tires will lose pressure as time passes, during both warm and cold temperature months. The weather isn't the only ingredient that results in a reduction in pressure either. Altitude shifts, flexing and tire wall impacts will slowly diminish air pressure. The most suitable procedure for optimal tire care is to check tire pressure almost every other visit to the gas station.
In terms of tread depth, you should check that every time you change your oil and you ought to rotate your tires every other oil change so that you can extend the life of your tires. Rotating your tires every 6 to 8 thousand miles can help sustain a level tread wear through the entire life span of the tire.

What Are Ideal Tire Pressure and Tread Depth Levels?
Ideal tire pressure levels will change by tire size and type. You'll find the optimal air pressure level listed in your vehicle owner’s manual or on the tire placard, which is usually mounted on your vehicle’s door edge, glove box or fuel door. Most tires may also have an ideal PSI range etched on the tire sidewall. As for tread depth, your tire is considered to be at the conclusion of its life once the tread is worn down to approximately 2/32 inches.
How Do I Check Tire Tread Wear On My Cadillac?
- Get the facts with the penny test. Insert a penny within your tire's tread with Lincoln's head inverted. Whenever you can see all of Lincoln's head, you should buy new tires.
- Or complete the quarter test. Should the tread touches Washington's head, you've got no less than 4/32 inch of tread left over and you ought to begin tracking your tires closely.
- Finally, you can examine tread depth by the tire's indicator bar. The indicator bars are generally at the base of the tread grooves. When these indicator bars become visibly flush with the adjacent ribs, this is the visible warning sign that the tire should be replaced.
How Do I Check Tire Pressure?
- First. Purchase a tire pressure gauge. The gauges installed on air hoses and compressors at gas stations generally aren't as dependable as handheld gauges due to a lack of upkeep and overuse. The cheaper metal dial tire gauges will suffice to get a decent reading of tire pressure.
- Second. Know it's best to check tires when they are cold; cold means they've been sitting for some time. Driving warms up tires and causes air to expand.
- Third. Take off the tire valve cap and insert the tire gauge firmly on top of the valve. This will push the air through the gauge, yielding a reading.
- Fourth. Match the reading to your pressure guidelines and then refill your tire with air as needed.
