A good set of tires can last you as long as five years, but there will come a time when you need to visit the Kia dealer for a new set. Keeping an eye on your tires throughout their lifespan will help you gauge when it's time for new tires, so it's a good idea to learn the signs that your tires are on their last legs. 4 Signs Your Kia Needs New Tires From Your Kia Dealer 1. Your Tires Fail the Penny Test Tire tread depth decreases over time, and eventually, your tread will be too shallow to be road-safe. You can test the tread depth using a penny, and if your tires fail the penny test, then you need to replace them. The penny should be inserted head-down into your tread. Gauge how much of Lincoln's head is visible. If you can see his entire head, then your tires have failed the test. more If you have a tire tread depth gauge, then you can also use that to determine whether there's enough tread left on your tires. If you have less than 1/16 of an inch of tread left, then it's time to replace those tires. 2. Your Tires Have Served You for 60,000 Miles If you've driven 60,000 miles or more with your current tires, then it'd be wise to replace them soon. The majority of tires are at their best for the first 60,000 miles you drive with them. Even if your tires aren't very old, it's still a good idea to replace them after 60,000 miles. How much you drive has more of an impact on your tires' lifespan than the actual age of your tires. 3. Your Tires Are Damaged or Showing Signs of Wear When tires get old, they can show signs of wear, which usually appears on the sidewall. There may be cracks, bulges, or indentations visible. Driving with worn-down or damaged tires is risky, so you should get a new set ASAP, even if the damaged tires aren't that old. 4. Your Tires Aren't Comfortable to Drive On The tires play a role in ride comfort by absorbing some of the vibrations that occur when driving. Every ride will have some amount of vibration, but you'll feel significantly more vibration while driving on worn-down tires. The extra vibration will definitely be noticeable and may be uncomfortable. Excessive vibration can also be caused by misaligned or unbalanced tires, so make sure you keep up with your tire maintenance to avoid that issue. Visit Kia of Coatesville in Coatesville, PA to buy a fresh set of tires and have them fitted. Be sure to stop by regularly for tire maintenance to ensure the new set lasts as long as possible.

Kia vehicles help you drive smarter with advanced driver assistance features, which is why Kia cars and SUVs are regarded as some of the safest models on the road. Before you visit your local Kia dealer to purchase a new car, learn about the Kia Drive Wise safety technology you may find on your preferred model. The Essential Guide to Kia's Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) Kia Drive Wise technologies can help with virtually all driving tasks, from city and highway driving to precise parking. Purchasing a vehicle with advanced safety features can reduce your risk of minor collisions, bolster your safe driving practices, and even help reduce your car insurance rates by preventing minor and major collisions. more Automatic Emergency Braking Automatic emergency braking is typically folded into forward collision avoidance features to automatically apply the brake when the vehicle's sensors or cameras detect an obstacle.

Automatic emergency braking may also engage when your vehicle is backing up if your Kia has a parking collision avoidance feature. With this technology, rear-facing sensors can detect close objects when the vehicle is in reverse and immediately apply the brakes. This technology will also emit visual and auditory warnings. Blind Spot Assistance Whether you're driving in the city or on the highway, your blind spot can be a challenge. Blind spot assistance technology uses sensors and software programming to analyze the distance between the cars around you and your intended vehicle maneuver to detect objects within your blind spot range. When objects are detected, the vehicle will keep your vehicle in the same lane and emit a warning. In addition to technology such as blind spot collision avoidance, your Kia may also be equipped with a blind spot view monitor to reduce blind spots. The view monitor provides a live view of your blind spot on your instrument cluster when the turn signals are activated.
