Tires
There is a rule that you can apply to every aspect of your life. The things you should invest in are the things that get between you and the ground. For example, it would be best to have a great pair of shoes for every occasion, whether work or play. You should have a good mattress and comfortable sheets to sleep on. Finally, you should have a good set of tires on your car.
​
Your car is a complex network of systems with the sole purpose of getting the wheels to turn or getting them to stop.
"Where the Rubber Meets the Road"
There is a saying that describes the result of a complicated series of events. That saying is, "where the rubber meets the road." This ubiquitous phrase is literally describing the job of the tires on your car or truck. You can have the latest and greatest car on the market today, but if you don't have four good tires between you and the road, you aren't getting out of the garage.
Your Tires Are One of the Most Important Parts of Your Car
At Sonny's Auto Repair, we keep your car on the road by ensuring your tires are ready to go. If your tires are not perfect, they can make the whole car feel like it is about to shake apart. If the treads are not adequate, you can lose control of your or hydroplane from the slightest amount of water on the road.
The quality and tread of tires are vital for your safety and the safety of others around you.

Correct Tire Pressure is Essential
​
When it comes to your tires, even incorrect and unbalanced air pressure in your tires can cause problems while driving.
At Sonny's Auto Repair, we help you with all aspects of your tires, from getting the air pressure right, to quickly patching small holes in flat tires from nails or screws you might have picked up. We also offer a full line of new tires depending on your vehicle and your need.
A Wheel Alignment Extends the Life of Your Tires
We will install the new tires, ensuring they are correctly balanced, an important step to keep your car moving smoothly and ensure even wear on the treads.
We also offer four-wheel alignments to make sure your tires are correctly configured. Improperly set tires can lead to uneven wear, requiring you to change them more often than you should. In addition, improperly aligned wheels cause additional friction between your car and the road, causing your car to work harder and use more fuel.
