Tires do more than keep your vehicle moving, they’re critical for maintaining grip, absorbing road impact, and ensuring safety in all weather conditions. At Scott's Ivy Exxon in Charlottesville, we provide expert tire replacement services to keep your car handling like new, no matter what roads you travel.

Whether you drive a Subaru, Chevrolet, Jeep, Ford, or any other make, our Reliable technicians will assess your current tires, help you choose the right replacements, and get you back on the road with confidence.

When Do Tires Need to Be Replaced?

While many tire issues can be repaired, replacement is necessary when damage or wear compromises safety. You should consider tire replacement if you notice:

• Tread depth is below 2/32 inch (check using the penny test or tread gauge)

• Sidewall cracks or bulges appear from aging or damage

• Cords are visible, indicating severe wear

• You’ve been driving on a spare tire longer than recommended

• Uneven wear patterns caused by misalignment or suspension issues

• The tire is older than 6–10 years, even if it looks fine (check the DOT date)

Our team will inspect each tire and let you know if a tire replacement is necessary, or if a simple rotation or alignment will do.

Choosing the Right Tires for Your Vehicle

You don’t have to stick with the same tires that came with your car. Several factors influence the right tire selection, and our specialists at Scott's Ivy Exxon will guide you through the process.

Key Factors to Consider:

1. Your Vehicle Type
Different vehicles require different tires. Whether you drive a sedan, pickup, SUV, sports car, or hybrid, we’ll match your vehicle with the right tire size, speed rating, and load capacity.

2. Driving Habits
Frequent long-distance driving? Aggressive cornering? Off-roading? City commuting? How you drive can influence whether you need all-season, performance, or off-road tires.

3. Local Weather
Live in an area with seasonal snow or rain? Consider winter tires or all-weather alternatives for improved safety and handling.

Tire Maintenance to Maximize Lifespan

Getting new tires is an investment, and one that should last. We recommend:

• Tire rotations every 6,000–8,000 miles

• Monthly tire pressure checks

• Wheel alignments annually or after hitting potholes

• Routine visual inspections for wear and damage

Regular tire maintenance improves safety, saves fuel, and extends tire life.
