Come to Tire and Brake Clinic to save money on new tires in the Willimantic area. Your tires are at the mercy of crumbling pavement and pot holes every winter. Driving through a pot hole can break your steel belts and change how your car handles. If you have suffered a flat tire in snowy weather, you really don’t want that to happen again. When your truck or SUV tires begin showing their age, you can save a bundle if you try shopping at a used tire dealer first. For quality new and used tires and car repair services, come to Tire and Brake Clinic. Located in Columbia, we are your source for quality tires for cars and trucks. At Tire and Brake Clinic, we know tires. In the cooler months when pavement is likely to be slick or wet, properly maintained tires can save your life. The first defense against crashes are properly maintained tires. If you cannot tell whether your tires are in good shape, come down and have us inspect them for you. There are a number of things a car owner must do to prevent the most common cause of tire blowouts.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration determined that tires that are underinflated by 25 per cent are three times more likely to be involved in a crash than tires with proper inflation. Underinflated tires may overheat at highway speeds, impair precision handling when turning, or they may split apart while you are driving. If you experience a blowout while on the road, avoid putting your foot on the brake. The drag from the blown tire will slow you down without applying the brakes. Keep the steering wheel pointed straight until the car has almost stopped, then ease the car gently toward the shoulder. So save money and buy new and used tires from Tire and Brake Clinic.
