Subaru of America makes some of the safest, most reliable cars on the road.  Award-winning crossover SUVs like the Subaru Forester, Subaru Crosstrek, and a Subaru Outback near Bethesda, MD are all built to last a long time.  However, all of these positives can be compromised if you don’t care for your tires.  Herb Gordon Subaru knows a thing or two about tires, and our service center should be your number one destination for new tires, tire repair, and tire rotation.  And of course, we’re chock-full of tire tips that you can keep in mind and use on your own when necessary.

Tire inflation is important.  Ensuring that all four tires are equally inflated to the correct level can make the difference between an exhilarating driver seat experience and one that’s more than a bit troublesome.  Using a pressure gauge is the best way to confirm your tires are on the up and up – and if you’d like advice on how to use it, you can always turn to our experienced technicians.  What you want to avoid is driving on tires that are underinflated or overinflated, which can lead to reduced traction, irregular wear patterns, poor performance in bad weather/slippery conditions, and decreased fuel efficiency.

Don’t underestimate the importance of tire rotation, as this simple step ensures that all four tires wear evenly, and not in one particular spot.  Visit our Silver Spring, MD Subaru dealership every 6,000 – 8,000 miles to rotate your tires and gain peace of mind.  And when you’ve driven your Subaru vehicle for 40,000 miles or so, come in and start looking at new tires, since this is the point at which tires generally wear down.
