Volkswagen cars and SUVs are renowned for their comfort and safety, and so much of that relies on the tires. Without quality tires in good condition, you’re not getting the most out of your VW.
When you visit Alexandria Volkswagen for tire service, you’ll find that our factory-certified technicians have ample experience and know-how. They’ll treat your VW with the care it deserves so that its famed precision German engineering can continue to deliver a remarkable drive. Give us a visit for services like these.
Did you know that the tires on your Volkswagen wear down at different rates? The front axle is the one that handles the steering, and the engine is also usually in the front. This means that the front tires usually wear down at a quicker rate than the rear ones. Tire rotation spreads out this wear more evenly so that the tires last longer.
When our technicians inspect your tires, they’ll look at tread depth, wear patterns, and inflation. Inflation is the easiest; if your tires have too much or too little air, they’ll adjust the levels. If the tread depth is too low (2/32” or lower), you’ll need to have new tires installed. And if the tread wear pattern is uneven, you’ll likely need new tires and other repairs.
Unbalanced tires can cause a drive that’s bouncy and uncomfortable. What’s more, they can cause uneven tire tread wear, making it necessary to change tires earlier than would have otherwise been necessary. We can measure the tires’ balance, adjusting as necessary.
Wheel misalignment is yet another problem that can cause uneven tire tread wear. What’s more, it can put you in danger. When your VW rolled off the production line, its wheels were perfectly aligned. We can get the alignment back to that factory-fresh perfection with our precision instruments.
There are few things more frustrating than getting a flat tire. But if a nail or other small puncture caused your flat, there’s a good chance we can patch it up and send you on your way.
