Recently, I was surprised to learn that in general tires are an important part of the fuel efficiency of your car. By keeping tires properly inflated, you can help improve your car’s gas mileage.  Look for gas stations around town that offer free air for tires – that can really help stretch the value of the dollar at the pump.

With gasoline prices at alarming peaks, I’m doing everything I can to maintain my car to improve gas mileage. For the most part, things like replacing the air filters are important for keeping the engine in good condition – so it keeps the car running well, in addition to improving how many miles I can travel per gallon.

Since checking the tire pressure regularly, I’ve noticed that two of my tires have to be inflated much more than the others. Neither one looks like a flat tire, but it’s likely that they are suffering from a slow leak somewhere. So, I’ve started checking out wheel and tire packages to see if I can find good deals on replacements. The search unearthed some really interesting products – especially these Toyo tires. With treads like that, you have to wonder what kind of vehicle would sport them.
