Retreading Is Recycling!

The process of recovering a worn casing not only saves landfills but also provides customers with a cost per mile savings over buying a new tire. The process of retreading also only uses two to three gallons of oil as opposed to the seven to eight gallons used to make new tires--making retreading a green option for the environmentally conscious consumer.

Recapping vs. Regrooving vs. Retreading

• Recapping is an old industry term for what is now more commonly called tire retreading.
• Regrooving is a process that makes use of existing tread depth by adding new grooves to the original rubber. Besides some safety concerns, the regrooving process greatly reduces the likelihood of that tire being eligible for retread in the future.
• Retreading, also known as recapping, involves buffing away the original tire tread, and applying a new layer of tread.

Purchasing a new set of tires is the number one maintenance cost when operating a commercial fleet. When a tire seems worn and ready for the scrap pile, be sure to check the condition of the casing, because tire retreading services may be able to extend the useful life of that tire.

How To Tell If It’s Time to Retread Your Tires

Have you noticed your tires spinning when pulling out from a stop, or a loss of traction while driving? These problems are likely due to poor treading. Driving on tires with low tread depth is dangerous, and can lead to a blowout or an accident. While new tires may not be in your budget, retreading is an affordable alternative.

When your tire's tread is worn down to the wearbar, don't assume they will have to be discarded. Tire casings can generally have up to 2 lives, even though their tread may be worn past its usefulness. Most major tire companies would agree that a tire should be pulled for retreading when it reaches 6/32nds tread depth in order to maximize the casing life of the tire.

Our Tire Retread Process

Our experienced technicians will do the following:

• Inspect the condition of your tires and ensure that your current tires are still usable.
• Buff away the remainder of your old tread.
• Apply an entirely new rubber tread using specialized machinery.

The result is a tire every bit as effective as a brand new tire.

At Wyatt's Tire Co., we have developed a reputation for excellent customer service and quality work at an honest price. Our staff of personable, experienced technicians will have your tires performing again in no time.
