At Banner Ford, we take the guesswork out of tire shopping. Tires influence how your Ford steers, stops, and feels on the road, so choosing the right set makes a noticeable difference.

Signs Your Tires Shouldn’t Be Ignored
Wear doesn’t always show up the same way. Even small irregularities can change how your vehicle handles. Maybe the tread looks low, maybe the sidewalls are cracked, or maybe you spot a bulge or cut. That’s why our team is here to inspect your tires, find the cause of the problem, and help prevent more serious issues down the line.
Keep Tire Pressure in the Right Range
Proper tire inflation keeps your vehicle safe, steady, and efficient, as it affects steering response, fuel economy, and how quickly your tires wear. Check pressure at least once a month when your tires are cold, or drop by and we’ll handle it for you. And when you add air, always use the recommended pressure printed inside your doorframe.
Rotate Your Tires to Help Them Last Longer
Because each tire handles a different load and position, they wear unevenly if left in the same spot. Rotating the tires every 5,000–7,500 miles keeps wear balanced and helps you get the most life out of them. Even wear also means you can replace the full set at once, which keeps the handling consistent.
Don’t Wait If Tire Alignment Feels Off
Misalignment makes the vehicle harder to control and can wear tires out prematurely. Shaking, pulling, or uneven tread wear are all common signs of alignment trouble. When something feels off, bring your Ford in so we can align the wheels and get everything tracking straight again.
FAQs
How can I tell when I need new tires?
Your tread-wear indicators tell the truth. If you can see them in several spots, the tires are ready to be replaced. Other issues, like cracks, exposed cords, bulges, splits, or punctures, need immediate inspection. Make it a habit to look at your tires monthly so you can catch changes early.
Why does tire pressure matter so much?
Underinflated tires can overheat and wear faster, especially during long drives or hot weather. Overinflated tires don’t grip as well and can wear out the center tread. Proper pressure helps your Ford handle correctly and keeps the tires working the way they’re designed.
What’s the benefit of regular rotations?
Rotating your tires keeps wear patterns even, which gives you smoother handling and longer tire life. It’s one of the simplest ways to protect your investment.
