Gateway Tire & Service Center proudly serves the Tire Services needs of customers in Memphis, TN, Jackson, TN, Clarksdale, MS, and surrounding areas. Our tire service work promotes better fuel economy and longer tread life. Overall, proper tire inflation can lead to reduced tread movement, increased water dissipation, reduced rolling resistance, proper traction, and adequate load carrying capabilities.

Because tire inflation is so important, our staff will take care to follow the inflation standards recommended by the manufacturer during a new tire installation. During any tire repair service, our staff will be able to determine whether a tire balancing or rotation service can solve your current set of issues. However, improper tire wear may also be the cause of alignment issues. Wheel balancing has the potential to relieve some symptoms of improper tire wear, like excessive lean. Overinflated tires are also undesirable and will result in excessive center tread wear. Whereas correctly inflated tires tend to have durable sidewalls, underinflated tires often have flexible sidewalls that result in quicker sidewall wear. Premature tire wear is caused by poor tire inflation levels and improper tire rotation. Our staff will also help you understand tire sidewall markings, teach you the best time to purchase a new set of tires, and show you how to choose the right set of tires for your vehicle. Our staff will help you understand the basics of tire care and maintenance, like when you should seek tire rotation, balance, and alignment.

Tire maintenance is vital for getting the most out of your tires by maximizing mileage and tread wear. The air inside your tires and the design of the tire influence vehicle performance, tire tread life, and ride comfort. Although tires are easily maintained, they are often overlooked.

A critical part of your vehicle’s suspension system, tires are responsible for transmitting the forces of driving, steering, and braking to the surface of the road. Tires are the connection between your vehicle and the surface of the road.
