The Best Tire Shop in Savannah


Tires are the single most important safety feature on your car. They are the only thing that connects the car to the road, and life-saving technologies like anti-lock brakes and electronic stability control cannot do their job if the tires don't have a good grip on the pavement.

As the adage goes, nothing lasts forever. Car owners still need to replace their tires a few times or more throughout the life of a typical vehicle. Despite advances in longer-lasting tires, actual tread life will vary by car type, tire type (such as all season or high performance), driving aggressiveness, and even road and weather conditions. Proper maintenance and responsible driving can maximize the mileage in a set of tires.

We offer these services to help you prolong the life of your tires.

Alignments
Wheel alignment (or simply alignment) is standard car maintenance that involves adjusting the angles of the wheels so that they are set to the manufacturer's specifications. The main purpose is to let the suspension and the steering systems operate at their desired angles - this reduces tire wear. Alignment is a complicated process and not all mechanics get it right. To have experts handle your car's alignment, visit Dixie Motors.

Balancing
If you feel excessive vibration in the car, or wobbling of the steering wheel, your tires may be unbalanced. Dixie Motors has the professional equipment and technicians to measure the balance of your vehicle's tires and make necessary corrections. Call us at 912-355-3568 if you have questions, or contact us so we can evaluate your tires.

Tire Inspection
It is recommended that tires, including the spare, be periodically inspected by a tire service professional during routine maintenance intervals such as oil changes and tire rotations. We will inspect the tire tread and sidewalls for irregular tread wear, cracking, scrapes, bulges, cuts, snags, foreign objects or other damage resulting from use. We will remove any stones, glass, foreign objects, etc. embedded in the tread to prevent further damage. Even minor damage can lead to further injury and eventual tire failure. Tires with excessive cracking on the tread or sidewall(s) should be removed from service. This is typically caused by under inflation, over loading, improper storage, and/or improper long-term parking.

Tire Rotation
Tire rotation is the practice of moving the wheels and tires of an automobile from one position to another, to ensure even tire wear, which extends the useful life of a set of tires. Rotation is important because each tire on a car carries a different amount of weight, making them wear at different rates. By rotating them, you basically even out those differences. Your owner's manual will tell you how often to rotate your tires, but as a rule of thumb, it should be done every 5,000 to 8,000 miles.

We Offer Most Major Brands of Tires
At Dixie Motors, we understand that tires are an important part of your car. The quality of tires and material used on them highly affects the vehicle's performance. Their main purpose is to protect the wheel's rims and improve vehicle performance. For this reason, we only deal with brand name tires. Also, we offer fleet tire management services to ensure you are getting the best value, fuel economy, and life from your tires.

Once a need for new tires is determined, it is necessary to identify the best tires for your vehicle and driving demands. Look for tires that do well in tests for braking, handling, and resistance to hydroplaning. Winter traction should also be considered, if applicable. Let tread wear, ride comfort, noise, and rolling resistance be tiebreakers. Trust the tire experts at Dixie Motors to help you choose the right tires for your vehicle.

We offer most major brands of tires. These are a few of our preferred brands.

What our clients are saying about us

We have established longterm and stable partnerships with various clients thanks to our excellence in solving their automotive needs!

We were so happy THAT OUR CAR WAS FIXED SO QUICKLY (it had been necessary to extend our stay at the house we had rented, and additionally to procure a car from budget, all extra expenses). We picked up our car and drove to Elkin, NC, for a night with our sister-in-law; the next day we headed for Johnstown, PA, for Thanksgiving dinner with my wife's brother's family. It was truly a memorable Thanksgiving: great food, good conversation and a thankful atmosphere, all because of the wonderful people at Dixie Motors. So, my recommendation is for anyone travelling in the Savannah area, who needs an auto repair, to give the fair and caring people, and excellent mechanics, at Dixie Motors a chance to make your travel days bright and fruitful. And from my immediate Ohio family and two Georgia sons, here's a great big THANK YOU, DIXIE MOTORS!JERRY AND LIBBIE HATMAKERLANCASTER, OHIOP.S. We are back home and have had NO TROUBLE with our car since leaving Georgia! quotes-image
