DFW Tires Direct

If you are thinking of checking your tire pressure at the nearest gas station, experts say you may want to think again. A study by the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration found that 1 out of 4 gauges at gas stations did not offer accurate tire pressure readings.

Avoiding aggressive stops and starts is not only doing your vehicle’s tire life a favor, not to mention your drivetrain and engine, but you are also saving gas and producing less emissions.

Driving on underinflated or overinflated tires will prematurely wear them out. Tires need to be filled properly so the most tread stays in contact with the road.
