The Penny Trick for Tires


Replacing worn out and unsafe tires is also vitally important to the safety of your vehicle. “The penny trick” is a simple guide you can use when checking the wear on your tires.
 
Simply:
  1. Insert a penny into the tread groove with Abe Lincoln’s head upside down and so you can see Lincoln’s face.
  2. If all of Lincoln’s head is visible, then it is time to replace your tires.


New England Jiffy Lube centers will help check the tread on your tires as part of the Jiffy Lube Signature Service Oil Change. Jiffy Lube will inform you of any dangerous wear to your tires and if you need to rotate your tires.
