Tire Care Tips in Augusta, GA
Your MAZDA’s tires are durable and built to last throughout your exciting Augusta adventures. Although tires naturally degrade over time, you can take a few measures to ensure that they will last for as long as possible. Our expert staff here at Gerald Jones Mazda have compiled a few helpful tips below!
Inspecting Tires
Even if you don’t feel anything wrong with the way your CX-50, MAZDA3 Sedan, or MAZDA CX-30 drives, you should regularly check your vehicle’s tires for degradation or damage. Be vigilant of the TPMS system, or manually check air pressure levels with a gauge if you do not have this feature. Additionally, you’ll want to inspect your tread depth in case the rubber has worn thin. When your car is parked and cool to the touch, you can measure tread depth simply with a penny. Insert the coin head side-down into one of your tires’ grooves. If the head isn’t visible, your tread depth is likely safe for many more tips to the Augusta Riverwalk. However, if you can see most of the head, your vehicle may be in need of new tires.
Types of Tires
If you need to select a new set of tires after conducting an inspection, you can visit our Tire Center for professional-grade advice and assistance. Here, we offer a variety of tires that are optimized for a variety of conditions. All-season tires are the most common selection due to their adaptability and long lifespan. However, you can also opt for summer tires, which feature wider grooves and soft rubber that can withstand high temperatures. Alternatively, if you’d like to get an edge on snow or ice, winter tires are made using even softer rubber than summer tires and feature unique designs for enhanced traction on snow. When you visit us, our experienced technicians will be able to help you decide which tires best fit your lifestyle.
Tire Care
There are several ways you can maximize your tires’ lifespan. Regular maintenance is a great way to inspect your vehicle’s status and to make sure it can function properly well into the future. Schedule frequent tire rotations to ensure that wear is being distributed evenly between them, and you will be set for many more treks to Aqueduct Park. Additionally, it’s always a good idea to be vigilant of potholes and debris on the road that could lead to chips or even leaks. Finally, when you brake, be sure to gradually bring the vehicle to stop rather than using sudden and excessive force.

Great service and speed!
Friendly and helpful staff.
“ Friendly and helpful staff. Had my vehicle ready promptly and reviewed all services performed. ”
very quick
“ I first contacted Mr. PJ Jones over Cargurus, communication is very prompt and Mr. PJ gave me a competitive price and fee schedule. It is a bit nervous because I am from SC and will travel over 2 hours to get to their dealership, Gary the sales person makes the paperwork process very smooth. Upon arrival at Augusta, the buying process is very quick, I got the paperwork done in less than 20 minutes the most. To my surprise, whatever Mr. PJ quoted me over email is exactly what I am getting. No hidden fee, changes at the last minute. It is great to see people do business that way. The only small thing is they put a sticker on the back of the car which seems way to big, be nice if they can put smaller sticker that blends in better with the vehicle or just don't put the sticker on their. ”

“ Kevin was so kind and seemed genuine. Before my appointment, I kept having to reschedule my appointments. He offered to let me use his car if I needed it. People are not kind anymore. That was the nicest thing anyone has said or offered to do in quite some time. He also gave me a discount. I was very grateful for. He is willing to help in anyway possible.

This was the best car buying experience I have ever had
“ This was the best car buying experience I have ever had. I worked with the dealer via text and phone and lined up great pricing and a trade in value (numbers checked vs. Kelly Blue Book) as well as approved 5 year/ 0% financing the day before I before I went to the dealership. I had to drive from Charleston to Augusta because none of the Charleston or Columbia dealers could even get close to this deal. When I got there, they didn't try to change any of the terms or upsell me anything else. They just showed me all the features on my new car, had me sign the paperwork, and I was out of there in 40 minutes total. Plus I LOVE my new CX5!!! This is how car buying should be. ”
