Tire Replacement Goldsboro, NC

Goldsboro is not a city in which you want to be caught off-guard with tire wear. Here are some signs you need to have your tires replaced.

  1. Lincoln’s Head: If you stick a penny in your tires’ tread and his head does not disappear, it means your tires should be replaced.
  2. Visible Tire Chords: If you can see the cords or inner lining of any tire, you are in danger of a blowout. Your next stop should be RetroLube to have that tire or those tires replaced.
  3. Vibration or Poor Handling: If you are experiencing poor handing, a tug one direction or the other, or a vibration, you may need new tires. These conditions are also indicative of tires out of balance, poor wheel alignment, or other steering related issues.
  4. Dry Rot: If you have not driven your vehicle in a while, the tires may have plenty of tread, but if there are little cracks throughout the rubber, it means dry rot has taken over. Dry rot will lead to tire failure, which can be very dangerous, especially at highway speeds.
