If you’re shopping for a new Mercedes-Benz car in the Baltimore, MD area, you’ll love what Mercedes-Benz of Owings Mills has to offer. In addition to a huge selection of high-end luxury sedans, coupes, convertibles, and SUVs, our talented team possesses a wealth of automotive knowledge that we’re happy to share with you. One piece of intel we’d like to pass on today has to do with proper tire care. 

Regardless of whether you’ve visited our Owings Mills, MD Mercedes-Benz dealership and purchased a Mercedes-Benz CLA or a Mercedes-Benz GLC near Westminster, MD, both vehicles place equal reliance on their tires. After all, your tires are the only part of your Mercedes-Benz vehicle that’s in constant contact with the road. There are a few things you can do to keep your tires in good shape, and one of the most important steps is to have your tires rotated every 6,000 – 8,000 miles. Tire rotation is a critical but oft-overlooked procedure that only takes a few minutes and can save you lots of headaches down the road. When you rotate your tires, you ensure that all four wear equally, as opposed to accruing significant wear in one particular spot.

Another thing you should do is brush up on proper tire inflation. Your vehicle’s ownership manual has information on this topic, or you can stop by our showroom and we’ll be happy to give you a crash course. Either way, the goal is to ensure that your tires are properly inflated so that you avoid instances of over-inflation (whereby the middle of the tire wears out faster than the sides) and under-inflation (whereby the opposite is true, and the sides wear out faster).
