Time for a New Set of Tires in Sparks Nevada?

There’s no doubt that your tires are considered important safety feature on any vehicle. Before you purchase a new set of tires, here are tips on the difference of tires on the market.

According to an article at autos.ca.msn.com, “Tire Safety”

“The only place your vehicle touches the road is through the tire tread. That small patch of rubber, about the size of the palm of your hand, determines how well the vehicle starts, steers, and most importantly, stops.
