Two Brand New Tires
Just a few days ago, I bought two brand new tires for my car, a Ford Lynx. The other two tires are still relatively new so I didn't need to replace all four. One of the tires was worn out badly and worn out in the wrong place. It had to be replaced as I'm now traveling long distances back again. I don’t want to experience a tire exploding while I’m driving at high speed. I want to make sure that my rims and tires are in
top shape.
Wheel Alignment
For whatever reason, my second-hand car’s wheel alignment is difficult to fix. I had it aligned in so many car shops already. I reckon that the previous car owner could have been in a car accident which misaligned the car’s wheels. But it seems to be doing much better now especially that all four tires are in good shape – two are brand new. Ever since I installed the two brand new tires (and had it wheel balanced), I haven’t experienced any vibration anymore when my speed reaches 110 kph. Although it hurts my pocket to buy two brand new tires, I’m glad I did. And just to make sure, I’m going to the car shop back again to have wheel alignment. It's better safe than sorry.
