Fast turns, fast starts, and slamming on the brakes will also create excessive wear on tires. It is also advisable not to drive through potholes, over curbs, or obstructions in the road.

When Should I Get New Tires? – Most tires are designed to last under normal conditions to manufacturers specifications. There are a few tips to pay attention to detect wear.
