Balance: Good Aurora tires have a deep tread, stable side walls and have been balanced for high speed handling.

If you bring your car to our shop to have them rebalanced, we’ll also make sure there’s no serious issue underneath the carriage of your vehicle like a broken tie-rod or control arm.

Inflation: By keeping your tires properly inflated you can increase their lifespan, save gas mileage, improve steering and help you stop quicker.
