The Science of Tire Maintenance at Ruben’s Tires

Tires are more than just rubber—they are integral to your vehicle’s safety, performance, and efficiency.

Proper tire care ensures smooth handling, better fuel economy, and reduced wear, extending both tire lifespan and your vehicle’s roadworthiness.

Below is a detailed, educational breakdown of the most critical aspects of tire maintenance.

Tire Pressure and Its Impact on Fuel Efficiency

Maintaining the correct tire pressure is essential for both safety and fuel efficiency.
Under-inflated tires increase rolling resistance, forcing the engine to work harder and consume more fuel.
Research shows that driving with under-inflated tires can lower fuel economy by up to 3% for each 1 PSI drop across all four tires

The Importance of Wheel Alignment and Balancing

Wheel alignment ensures that the tires are aligned correctly with the vehicle’s suspension and steering systems.
Poor alignment can cause the vehicle to pull to one side, creating uneven tire wear, reducing handling ability, and compromising safety.

ABS uses sensors at each wheel to monitor rotational speed.

Why Regular Tire Rotation Matters

Tire rotation refers to moving tires from one position on the vehicle to another to ensure even tread wear.
This is essential, especially for vehicles with front-wheel drive (FWD) or all-wheel drive (AWD), where weight distribution is uneven.

The Role of Tire Balancing in Safety and Comfort

Unbalanced tires can cause the vehicle to vibrate at high speeds, making the ride uncomfortable and potentially dangerous.
Balancing involves placing small weights on the wheel rim to distribute mass evenly and avoid wobbling.

Seasonal Tire Services for Enhanced Performance

Different seasons demand different tire types for optimal performance.

Winter tires, for example, provide better grip in snow and ice, while summer tires enhance traction on hot roads.

All-season tires offer a balanced compromise but may not excel in extreme conditions.

At Ruben’s Tires, we offer a range of seasonal tire services to keep your vehicle prepared for changing road conditions, ensuring both safety and performance year-round.

This overview highlights the importance of tire care and regular maintenance to keep your vehicle safe, efficient, and comfortable.

Through expert inspections, balancing, alignments, and rotations, Ruben’s Tires ensures your tires perform their best on every road.

Key Facts and Data Supporting Tire Services at Ruben’s Tires

Under-Inflated Tires Reduce Fuel Economy by 3%

Tires that are not properly inflated increase rolling resistance, causing the engine to work harder.
For every 1 PSI drop across all tires, fuel economy can decrease by up to 3%.
This not only raises fuel costs but also accelerates tire wear.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I rotate my tires?

Rotating your tires every 6,000 to 8,000 miles ensures even wear, extending their lifespan. Our experts in Apopka and Altamonte recommend rotating your tires during regular maintenance checks to avoid uneven tread wear.

How do I know when my tires need replacement?

Tires should be replaced if the tread depth is below 1/16 of an inch or if there is visible damage. Use the penny test—if you can see all of Lincoln’s head when placed in the tread groove, it’s time to replace them. Visit South Semoran or North Semoran for an inspection if you're unsure.

What should my tire pressure be?

The correct tire pressure varies by vehicle, but you can find the recommended PSI in your car's manual or on the driver-side door jamb. Proper tire inflation boosts fuel efficiency and safety. Stop by any Ruben’s Tires location for free pressure checks and adjustments.

What’s the difference between wheel alignment and balancing?

Alignment ensures your tires meet the road at the right angle, improving handling and reducing wear. Balancing distributes weight evenly across tires to prevent vibrations. Both services are available at our Altamonte and Apopka locations for smoother rides and extended tire life.

Can I repair a flat tire, or should I replace it?

Punctures in the tread area smaller than ¼ inch can typically be repaired. However, sidewall damage requires tire replacement for safety reasons. Our team in North Semoran can advise on the best course of action.

How long do tires usually last?

On average, tires last between 25,000 to 50,000 miles, depending on driving habits and road conditions. Regular inspections at Ruben’s Tires help ensure your tires remain safe and reliable for the long haul.

Do I need seasonal tires in Central Florida?

While all-season tires work well for most conditions, performance tires offer enhanced grip during hot weather. Ask our team in South Semoran if seasonal tires are right for your driving needs.

How does tire maintenance affect fuel economy?

Proper inflation and alignment can improve fuel economy by up to 3%, reducing drag and ensuring optimal performance during every drive.

Why does my car vibrate at high speeds?

This is often a sign of unbalanced tires. Our technicians at Altamonte use advanced equipment to balance your wheels, ensuring a smooth ride.

What are the signs of misalignment?

Common signs include uneven tread wear, a steering wheel that pulls to one side, and decreased fuel efficiency. Visit Apopka for a quick alignment check.
