At T&A Truck Specialist, Inc in Tampa, we change many tires that should’ve been replaced long ago. Commercial trucks have a lot of tires and they travel a lot of miles and keeping them maintained is extremely important.
Blowouts are an inconvenience you can do without; besides the danger of losing control or damaging another vehicle, towing a large truck or replacing a tire on the side of the road is an experience best avoided. Inspect your tires before every trip for tread depth, uneven wear, and low tire pressure. Be sure to thoroughly inspect for uneven wear...sometimes a bad suspension component will wear out the inside of the tire very rapidly, over the course of just a few hundred miles, and at a glance from the outside of the tire the tread may look fine. If the tire is only wearing in one spot, it’ll go quick, no matter how good the rest of the tire looks. Watch for sidewall damage and dry-rot as well. Both severely weaken the structural integrity or the tire, increasing the potential for a blowout without warning.
