Drive Safely on Snow Ice and Wet Roads

Tire Services in Cushing, Wisconsin

Your tires are the only part of your vehicle that touches the road, and in Cushing that means dealing with snow, ice, wet pavement, and gravel. Worn tread or incorrect inflation reduces traction and makes it harder to stop or steer safely, especially during winter months.

Wreck A Mended Automotive Services provides tire inspection, replacement, and related services for passenger vehicles and light trucks. Whether you're preparing for winter or noticing uneven wear, the team checks tread depth, sidewall condition, and air pressure to make sure your tires perform the way they should.

What Tire Service Includes and Why It Matters

When you bring your vehicle to Wreck A Mended Automotive Services in Cushing, the team inspects each tire for tread depth, punctures, bulges, and uneven wear patterns. They also check air pressure and valve stems, which can leak slowly over time and reduce handling performance.

After service, your vehicle grips the road more securely, stops in shorter distances, and handles better in turns. Proper tire maintenance also improves fuel efficiency by reducing rolling resistance, which saves you money over time.

Tire rotation and alignment are often performed during the same visit to extend tire lifespan and prevent uneven wear. If tires are worn past safe limits or damaged beyond repair, replacement options are discussed based on your vehicle type and budget.

It's Normal to Have Questions About Tires

Drivers often want to know when tires need replacing, how to prepare for winter, and what causes uneven wear or air loss.

How do I know when my tires need to be replaced?
Tires should be replaced when tread depth falls below 4/32 of an inch, especially before winter. You can use a tread depth gauge or the penny test. If you see cracks, bulges, or exposed cords, replacement is needed immediately.

What causes uneven tire wear?
Uneven wear is usually caused by improper alignment, incorrect tire pressure, or worn suspension components. Rotating your tires every 5,000 to 7,000 miles helps distribute wear more evenly and prolongs tire life.

Why do my tires lose air pressure in winter?
Cold temperatures cause air molecules to contract, which lowers tire pressure by about one PSI for every 10-degree drop. Checking and adjusting tire pressure regularly during winter keeps your tires performing safely.

Should I use all-season or winter tires?
All-season tires work for most driving in Wisconsin, but winter tires provide better traction in snow and ice due to softer rubber compounds and deeper tread patterns. If you drive frequently in harsh conditions, winter tires are worth the investment.

Can tire service improve my fuel economy?
Yes. Properly inflated tires with good tread reduce rolling resistance, which means your engine doesn't have to work as hard. You'll notice better gas mileage and smoother highway driving.
