Queens Tire Dealer

Living in NYC is a balancing act for us and your tires & wheels! Well, here's one more thing to balance...your drive. A smooth, flawless ride is important for your vehicle especially your tires, front end and brakes. Today, we're talking about getting our wheels and tires to rotate at varying speeds without vibrations. Here's a secret...even brand new tires are not perfectly round. More secrets, sssh....the weight of your tires are not perfectly distributed. In some spots they are lighter and in others they are heavier. And any of the above can lead to vibrations and less than a smooth ride. Tires that are not balanced can really be a huge issue because vibrations are the least of your issues. The real cost is very rapid tire wear of your brand new tires and your suspension will suffer greatly costing some bucks you don't need to spend. At 106 St Tire new tires are mounted on wheels then they're spun-balanced by computer to detect vibrations. Many vibrations can be eliminated by r ... read more

By definition, your spare tire is exactly that, a spare in case of an emergency. Meanwhile while we wait for an emergency, we forget to check on our spare tire simply because it's not needed........yet. And when it's needed, it might not be ready to do its job because many of us don't do what we have to do to keep our cars, tires, brakes, etc in good condition....in a word: maintenance. The problem with that kind of thinking is that it's not preventative as is, unfortunately, a lot of maintenance issues. The whole concept of preventative car care is to avoid accidents, get the best performance, stay prepared for situations that come up unexpected, avoid costly repairs and situations and extend the life of our car and its tires. Think about it. Isn't it a pain when your car doesn't start on a cold morning? But, when have you had your car battery checked last? Batteries have a life expectancy. How old is yours? Same with your spare tire....It's there, you know it and we all ignore it an ... read more
