It’s important to always check your truck tires before every trip, even if you’ve just driven it recently. Tire pressure and condition can change quickly, so it’s crucial to always be aware of any potential issues. Not only will this help keep you safe on the road, but it can also save you money in the long run. So make sure to take a few minutes before each journey to give your truck tires a thorough inspection. You’ll be glad you did!

Why you should check your tires before every trip

1. A tire blowout can cause a traffic accident
2. Your vehicle may be carrying hazardous materials that are not safe for the environment
3. You could end up with a flat tire, which is expensive to fix and inconvenient
4. You might need to change your tires more often if they are underinflated or overinflated
5. The right amount of air in your tires will help you get better gas mileage
6. Driving on low-pressure tires increases the risk of getting an irregular wear pattern on the treads that reduces their life span by 20%    
7. Tires that are worn down can lead to excessive heat buildup when they’re driven at higher speeds, leading to premature cracking and even burnouts 
8. Worn out tires have less traction than new ones 
9. Under-inflated or over-inflated tires increase braking distance 
10. If you don’t check your truck’s tire pressure before every trip, you run the risk of running into issues like damaged rims from potholes in roads or being pulled over by police officers who think it looks suspicious because there is something wrong with your car

So, before you hit the open road, be sure to check your truck tires’ air pressure and condition. If you need help finding a nearby service center or checking the pressure on your own tires, don’t hesitate to contact us. We want to make sure that you stay safe while driving – and that includes making sure your semi-truck is in good shape for the journey ahead.
