What Color are your Tires?

     I remember when I was growing up every kid in my neighborhood had a BMX Bicycle, and we would ride all day long it was our ticket to freedom. I will never forget the day that Matt Markey came home with a new set of tires for his BMX and they were RED.  Every kid on the block was GREEN with envy when he put them on his bike, this was the beginning of the original PIMP MY RIDE how to personalize your own bike when they all look the same.



     Fast forward almost 40 years and I'm standing in my service department looking at Colored Tires it brings back those memories of our tricked out BMX's but this time it has a whole new meaning.  What Dave Fredrickson has done is painted the tires to reflect tread wear and what condition your tires are actually in.
GREEN= They are good to go, this indicates optimal tread depth.
YELLOW = You Might have some reduced performance in Rain or snow.
RED = These tires are unsafe and it is time to replace them.

Come by to Harold Chevrolet Buick and check out our World Class Service Department, mention that you read this blog and receive a discount on your tire purchase.
