Purchasing New Tires - Maintenance & Services
Your Safety Starts with Proper Tire Care
At AutoVaun, 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 AutoVaun in Mesa 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 AutoVaun in Mesa, AZ 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 Mesa, AZ 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 AutoVaun 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. AutoVaun follows strict manufacturer guidelines to ensure any repair made is 100% safe.
We offer the following services to help you prolong the life of your tires:
At AutoVaun, customer safety is our number one priority. We hope you'll be a little safer with this information. If you'd like to talk about whether your tires may need inspection or replacement, call us at 480-807-6555 or visit us at 5015 E McKellips Road in Mesa, AZ. Happy travels!

Tire Related FAQs
At what mileage should I rotate my tires?
Most manufacturers recommend rotating tires every 5,000-7,500 miles. However, this can vary depending on your vehicle's drivetrain and driving style. Let AutoVaun in Mesa help determine the ideal rotation schedule.
What are the benefits of rotating my tires?
Tire rotation ensures even wear, extending the life of your tires and promoting a smoother, more balanced ride. It also improves handling and reduces the risk of uneven traction.
How do I check my tire pressure?
Remove the valve cap and press a tire gauge onto the stem. Compare the reading to your manufacturer's recommended PSI (found in your manual or inside the driver's door). Re-cap the valve and add or release air as needed. Or visit AutoVaun-we're happy to check it for you.
Does my tire warranty influence my rotation schedule?
Tire manufacturers know that tire rotation is important for even tread wear. Tire mileage warranties are most often set by the manufacturers with tire rotations included. Failing to rotate your tires may void your tires manufacturer warranty.

Customer service with Mathew was amazing, he was super informative and kept me up to date on everything as well as made sure that my needs were met if I ever had any special request.

New customer who had an awesome experience. I took my car in for an oil change and some front end work. Richard got me in quickly and got all the service done the same day. He followed up with me the next day on some additional work I wanted to have priced. Great service and communication. So glad I found a place that I can trust that is close to my house, with great rates.

We have been going to Autovaun for years, they are outstanding. They are not a discount service center so do not expect to save money over a dealership, but they are truly honest, there have been many times where a dealer told me one thing, with multiple items needing to be replaced and at a huge expense and autovaun found and repaired the actual single broken part. We have never had an issue with any work done and all the repairs have lasted us. -
Barbara E.They filled my AC with freon and put in a dye that would let them know where the leak was. Since it was leaking I had them fix the ac. While there they noted my check engine light was on, explained to me it was most likely the catalytic converter and called the dealer finding out it was still under warranty. He told me to have them run a diagnostic. Sure enough, the catalytic converter needed to be replaced and everything was covered. I really appreciate Autovaun for going above and beyond to help me out like that.
