When To Get This Service

Don't wait until a tire fails—worn or damaged tires can compromise handling, braking, and overall safety.

Look for these warning signs:

Tread depth below 2/32 of an inch
Uneven or excessive tire wear
Visible cracks, bulges, or punctures
Frequent loss of tire pressure
Vibration or shaking while driving
Tires older than 6 years, regardless of tread

Our Northwest Express Auto Care-Certified technicians recommend replacing tires in pairs or as a full set to maintain even handling and performance, and inspect tread depth at every oil change.

What is the cost of tire installation and replacement?

The cost depends on your vehicle's tire size, the tire brand and quality you choose, and whether additional services like alignment are needed. Our Northwest Express Auto Care-Certified technicians can provide a free quote tailored to your vehicle and driving needs.

How do I know if I need new tires?

Common signs include tread depth below 2/32 of an inch (use the penny test), visible cracks or bulges in the sidewall, uneven wear patterns, or frequent pressure loss. If you notice vibration while driving, that can also indicate it's time for new tires.

How often should I replace my tires?

Most tires last between 25,000 and 50,000 miles, depending on the tire type, driving habits, and road conditions. Regardless of tread wear, tires should generally be replaced every 6 years due to rubber degradation over time.
