How do I properly maintain the tires on my Toyota Yaris?

I recently purchased a Toyota Yaris and I'm not sure how often I should check the tire pressure and when I should replace them. Can you give me some tips on how to properly maintain the tires on my Yaris?

Hi Samantha, it's important to check your tire pressure at least once a month. This will ensure that your tires are at the optimal pressure for safe driving and good fuel efficiency.

In general, tires should be replaced every 6 years or when the tread depth is below 2/32 of an inch. However, it's always a good idea to visually inspect your tires regularly for any signs of wear and tear.

To extend the life of your tires, rotate them every 5,000 to 8,000 miles. This will help distribute wear evenly and prevent premature wear on one specific tire.

If you notice any uneven wear on your tires, it could be a sign of misalignment or suspension issues. It's important to have this checked and fixed to prevent further damage to your tires.
