The Right Tires for Your Jaguar Mean the Best Possible Performance in Charlotte
Your tires play a crucial part in the overall performance of your car--because, even if your engine is perfectly tuned and your tank is full, the wheels have to meet the road. Underinflated or overinflated tires, tread with uneven or excess wear, misaligned tires, or imbalanced tires can all affect the way your car feels when you're driving. Some tire issues can also lower your fuel economy, and can even be a big safety hazard.
You bought your Jaguar for its prowess on the road--you don't want to compromise that.
Our Charlotte tire store stocks a full selection of Jaguar recommended tires (or tyres, if you want to give a nod to your car's British roots) for all seasons, all lifestyles, and all budgets. Shop the best tires from top brands like BF Goodrich, Bridgestone, Continental, Dunlop, Firestone, Goodyear, Hankook, Michelin, Pirelli, Yokohama, and more, or let our experts make a suggestion for you.

Basic Maintenance and Prevention Can Extend the Life of Your Tires by Years
The average expected lifespan of a tire isn't often measured in years--like most things--but in miles. Tires typically can last for 40,000 to 80,000 miles, depending on environment and how well they're cared for. There is an age span, as well, because the rubber compound will begin to be compromised around ten years, but the vast majority of drivers will hit the 40,000-mile mark on a tire long before a decade has passed.
There are things you can do at home, or during your Jaguar's scheduled maintenance, to extend the lifespan of your tires, and get closer to that 80K mark:
- Regular visual inspections--check for signs of uneven or excessive wear, any damage, bulges, or separation of the tread
- Check for proper inflation to recommended PSI
- Rotate your tires roughly every 6,000 - 8,000 miles to ensure even wear
- Check the alignment regularly--especially if you knock a curb or hit a particularly nasty pothole
- Get your tires/wheels balanced when needed to improve ride quality and comfort,
- Only ever load your vehicle to its recommended max payload--excess weight can put too much pressure on your tires
