    ALSO make sure your tiers are under 6 years, The tier starts to dry out and brake down even with perfect tread. You can tell this by the last numbers on your tire exp. 4018, Means it was made in the 40th week of 2018. when you buy new tires make sure they were made in the last year for sure.

    i would say for the normal average car driver probably every 50 to 60K. All depends on the tire brand you chose to get. If you go on bumpy roads or mountains then its probably a lot less. And if your tire starts to lose tire pressure often then its time to change it out whenever you possibly can.

    • @dudefy33
      @dudefy33 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Look into rotating the tires. This evens out the wear of tire tread by moving the back tires to the front. Allows you to replace tires less often
