Tire fitting

Why is tire fitting service important?

Even a beginner knows about replacing tires. This is, one might say, the first information he learns, even before he owns a car. So why is it so important?

The answer is simple – it is the safety of the driver and passengers of the car, because it is the tires that provide contact with the road.

The quality of the tires themselves is also important, and how professionally they are installed. Careless wheel replacement can lead to serious problems on the road: loss of a wheel due to poorly tightened nuts, suspension damage due to poor-quality wheel balancing, etc..

What is proper tire fitting

The constant components of proper fitting are and always will be 3 factors:

• Skill and experience of employees
• Quality equipment
• High quality consumables

When should you have your tires installed at a service station?

It’s better to do it before than after. This is reasonable advice, because every day thousands of accidents happen on the roads of the world. And most of them are precisely due to poor-quality car service. The main reasons are as follows:

• change of seasons
• tire damage
• if you notice discomfort while driving (strange vibrations, the car does not brake well, the tires are slightly flat, etc.)

It is important to balance the wheels every 15,000 km.

It is recommended to replace tires when the temperature reaches +7 degrees. In winter, it is worth buying soft and elastic tires, because summer rubber begins to harden and this affects the movement of the car. Winter tires have a special tread that improves traction on ice. But when the temperature is above 7 degrees, winter tires begin to melt and wear out quickly.

It is better to replace them in advance so that the problem does not occur on the road. When you “change” tires, you need to take care of their high-quality storage. This will ensure a longer service life.

How tire fitting is performed in a modern Auto Master car service

When replacing tires, it is important to carry out the wheel balancing procedure. The masters of our Auto Master car service will be happy to provide you with this service.

What is it and why is such a balance needed? Usually, when there is an imbalance, small weights are installed on the tire, which help to keep the wheels flat on the road and prevent the car from turning over. Our tire fitting specialists in Kyiv will make sure that you get balanced tires without unnecessary weights.

If you use used wheels, our stations can check them and rebalance the tires. When installing new wheels, balancing is required after 500 km of mileage. And this indicator should be checked after every 15,000 km.
