Tyres do much more for your car other than allow it to move forwards and backwards. Most people don’t realize that tyres can save or cost you gas mileage. If the tread on your tyres are worn, it places a heavier load on your car, causing your car to consume more fuel to generate more power, whereas, if your tread is fairly new and plentiful, it’s a lighter load with less strain, requiring less fuel. Meatier tyres can also provide a better alignment, smoother drivability, improved vehicle stability, and better shock absorption. Maintaining proper air/PSI levels in your tires also affect how your car drives. Remember, cooler temperatures automatically deflate tyres 2-3 pounds, while warmer temperatures will automatically inflates tyres 2-3 pounds.
Exhaust systems, mufflers, and catalytic converters are major contributors to the drivability and functionality of your car as well. A damaged or poorly maintained exhaust system or catalytic converter with leaks and/or holes creates a number of problems such as;
- Air pollution through release of harmful emissions and fumes
- Loss of and/or slow acceleration
- Hesitation and sputtering
- Sluggish ride and drivability
- Increased fuel consumption
- Noise pollution
- Failed MOT Tests
To avoid these unfortunate problems, come to Bullen at the first sign of tyre wear and/or muffler and exhaust damage—we’ll take care of you and get you back on the road in reasonable timing.
