At Kova Motive, we specialize in the technical side of tire health—from unusual wear patterns to diagnosing sensor errors. Here is what every driver needs to know to keep their vehicle safe and reliable.
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) is your first line of defense against a blowout. However, the light can indicate different levels of urgency.
Your tires are like a diagnostic health report for your suspension. Abnormal wear patterns tell us exactly what is wrong with your vehicle's setup before it becomes a major failure.
Inner/Outer Wear: Typically an alignment issue (Camber or Toe).
Center Wear: Consistent over-inflation.
Cupping: Worn out struts or suspension components.
We recommend rotating your tires every 5,000 to 7,500 miles. This ensures even wear and maximizes the lifespan of your set.
Air contracts when it's cold, leading to a drop in pressure. Often, the light will turn off once the tires warm up during driving, but you should still check the PSI to ensure they are at the recommended level.
We don't offer alignments at our shop, but can recommend a local alignment specialist to take care of your vehicle's specific needs.
