Our tip
It's best to change your tires when they're cold – this way, the air pressure is correct when checking. Make sure your car is stable and secure before placing the jack on the wheel. Always tighten the wheel bolts crosswise to ensure even wheel alignment, and check the torque again after a few miles. A tire pressure gauge will help you set the optimal air pressure for greater safety and a longer tire life.
