If you’re like many San Antonio drivers, you may be wondering, “How do I check tire tread wear?” You’ll probably be surprised to learn that all you need to do so is a ruler or a penny, and you can check tire tread depth at home.

In addition to checking tire treads, you’ll also want to devote time to completing/having the following service completed:
