There are dozens of standard tires that will fit your wheel, but Original Equipment (OE) tires are engineered specifically for your Lexus, so you can enjoy your investment at its peak potential. The Lexus Tire Center carries all the top brands, such as Bridgestone, Yokohama, Dunlop, and more. Whether you're looking for new Lexus Wheels, OE options or are in need of high-performance or all-season tires, we have plenty of options to fit your needs.
New tires and wheels are an investment. Road hazard coverage protects that investment by helping cover the cost to replace a damaged tire. And, unlike other tire stores that charge for the coverage, the Lexus Tire Center includes it on all eligible tire purchases.
You can measure the tread on your tires in as much time as it takes to get in and start your Lexus. See for yourself: Simply grab a quarter and find the grooves that go around your tire. Turn Washington upside down and insert him headfirst into a groove. If you can see the top of his head, it's time for new tires.
A vehicle's tires are one of its most essential components. Unfortunately, they're also the part that typically wears down the quickest. As a vehicle owner, taking good care of your car's tires and replacing them as needed is vital. If you live in the San Jose, California, area, you can turn to the tire center at Lexus of Stevens Creek for all your tire needs.
High-quality tires are one of the most important parts of any vehicle. Your car's tires are constantly under extreme pressure because of fluctuating temperatures and road conditions. Poor-quality tires can quickly wear out and may not provide the traction you need to travel safely.
Driving on worn tires makes you more likely to experience a flat. One minute, you could be driving along fine, and the next, you're stranded on the side of the road. Worn tires can cause your vehicle to drift to one side or another while reducing your stopping power. Both effects make accidents more likely.
Worn tires also decrease your vehicle's efficiency. Since your car needs to work harder to propel itself forward with worn tires, it uses more fuel. Ensuring that your vehicle always has tires that are in great shape is an easy way to reduce fuel costs.
Regular maintenance is an excellent way to extend the life of your car's tires. You can often add thousands of miles to a set of tires just by completing a few minor maintenance tasks. And while tire maintenance costs some money, you'll typically save in the long run compared to replacing the tires more frequently or performing repairs on your vehicle because of an accident.
Tire maintenance includes a few simple tasks. Checking the tread is an essential part of tire maintenance. The tread is the rough exterior of the tire that touches the ground. Over time, friction causes this rubber tread to wear down. When this happens, the tires become less effective at gripping the road, which is dangerous. One of our skilled technicians at our Lexus tire center can measure how much tread remains on your vehicle's tires to ensure they're at a safe level.
Rotating the tires is another vital part of caring for your car's tires. All the tires wear down as you drive, but not at the same rate. Based on the weight distribution within your vehicle and driving habits, it's common for the front tires to wear down faster than those in the rear. The same goes for the tires on the driver's side compared to the passenger's. The tread may wear down faster, or you may notice uneven tire wear.
Tire rotation can help extend the life of your car's tires. Rotating the tires moves them from one spot on your vehicle to another. For example, the tire with the most wear on the front driver's side may move to the back passenger side. Tire rotations are one of the best ways to extend the life of your tires by ensuring the tread wears evenly.
You also want to regularly check the tire pressure, which refers to the amount of air within the tire. Every tire comes with a recommended pressure amount, which optimizes performance. Over time, the pressure inside the tires can shift because of factors such as a slow leak or temperature changes. A common tire maintenance task is to check the air pressure of each tire, then either add or remove air to bring it to the recommended level.
Checking the tire pressure is an easy task you can do yourself. You'll need a tire pressure gauge, which you can purchase at most auto parts stores or online. You may also be able to find an air pressure pump at a local gas station, which typically includes a gauge.
Once you have your tool, remove the nozzle cap on the tire you want to check, then insert the air pressure gauge. Wait for the arm to settle, then read the number on the gauge. Compare it with the recommended psi for your tires to determine if you need to add or release air. You can typically find this number on the tire or in the owners manual for your car.
