With all this crazy weather people have been having all across the U.S., it is important to know when your tires need to be changed. The penny test is the easiest way to check to see if your tires are in good condition or not.

Get a penny and check out this website for simple quick easy steps to check those tires:

Also, rotate those tires after every 5,000 miles in order to get the most out of your tires.

I knew about the penny test, but I wasn't aware of the every 5,000 mile tire rotation guideline. I have always done it as part of winterization in the fall and when I take the snow tires off in the spring.

Thank you for the information. I never knew about the penny test. I am really clueless. I am trying to be better, though. I see that I have a lot to learn still.
