Purchasing New Tires - Maintenance & Services
Your Safety Starts with Proper Tire Care
At Williams Automotive Inc., your safety is our top priority. We're committed to keeping your vehicle dependable, safe, and ready for the road. One of the most critical - and often overlooked - components of vehicle safety is your tires.
If your tires are worn, underinflated, or damaged, even the most advanced safety systems and engineering can't perform at their best. That's why staying on top of tire condition is essential.
If you're unsure about your tires' health, stop by Williams Automotive Inc. in Little Rock for a professional inspection. We'll help you determine whether it's time for a replacement and guide you on how to maintain them for maximum performance and safety.
Why Are Old or Bad Tires Dangerous?
Your tires are your vehicle's only contact with the road-when they're compromised, so is your safety. Old, worn, under-inflated, or poorly matched tires can lead to dangerous handling, poor braking, and a higher risk of blowouts or hydroplaning. In high-stakes driving situations, the wrong tires can make you feel like a passenger in your own car.
Signs Your Tires Need Air
Underinflated tires often appear flatter at the road contact point. This causes uneven wear on the sidewalls, reduced fuel efficiency, and in severe cases, complete tire failure. Overinflated tires, on the other hand, reduce the contact patch-making it harder for your car to grip the road, especially during sudden turns or stops. For the safest and smoothest ride, check your vehicle's recommended pressure (usually listed on the driver's side door) or visit Williams Automotive Inc. in Little Rock, AR for assistance.
Signs of Low Tread Depth
Low tread reduces traction, especially in wet conditions, increasing your risk of hydroplaning and poor vehicle control. Your tire's tread channels water and debris-without enough depth, it simply can't perform. Try the penny test at home, or better yet, bring your vehicle to our shop in Little Rock, AR for a professional tread inspection.
Signs of Tire Damage
Look out for embedded debris, cracks, bulges, or bubbling. You may also feel vibration or hear odd noises when driving-both of which may indicate internal damage or structural failure. If you suspect an issue, it's best to avoid handling the tire and let a pro at Williams Automotive Inc. take a look.
What Can (and Can't) Be Repaired
Small punctures within the tread area can usually be safely repaired with a plug and patch. However, damage to the sidewall, large gashes, or tires driven on while flat are often beyond repair. Williams Automotive Inc. follows strict manufacturer guidelines to ensure any repair made is 100% safe.

How do I check my tire pressure?

They are awesome. We will only use them from now on. Went in for 2 front tires, and had gotten a safety inspection. We were sure we needed drivers side brakes replaced and had mentioned it to them. They really could have taken us for more money but they are truly HONEST. They told use all the brakes on the car were great and the only thing they recommended was an alignment. So glad we stopped there instead of the cheaper place "Walmart". This establishment cares and is honest. I will recommend them to everyone I know.
