When you drive a luxury vehicle like an Aston Martin, Bentley, or Rolls-Royce, you want to be sure it gets the care and attention to detail that it deserves. This is why our team always stresses the importance of luxury car tire maintenance. Your tires are a key safety component of your vehicle, and they affect handling and performance as well. Keeping your tires in pristine condition ensures safe and confident driving no matter where the road takes you. Explore our guide to luxury car tire maintenance below, and if your vehicle is in need of service, we will gladly take care of whatever it requires.
One of the best ways to ensure your tires are road-ready is to perform a monthly tire inspection. This inspection takes just ten minutes, and it is an excellent way to spot small issues before they turn into larger problems.
The first step we recommend is to check your tire pressure. This is true even if you drive a vehicle that is outfitted with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System. For the most accurate reading, try to wait a few hours after you last drove the vehicle. When tires are warm, you’ll likely see a temporary increase in tire pressure. If you notice that your tire pressure is a bit low, gradually add air until they are fully inflated.
Next, we recommend inspecting your tires for wear. Do you notice any gashes, embedded objects, or uneven wear patterns? Uneven wear patterns are indicative of issues that range from overinflated tires to misaligned wheels or suspension issues.
No matter which make and model you drive, you can check your tire tread with just a penny. Learn how to check car tire tread here:

The recommended luxury car tire PSI will vary based on the make and model as well as the tires your vehicle has. This is why we always recommend taking a look at your owner’s manual for exact figures.
Aston Martin has a recommended tire pressure of 33 psi to 41 psi based on model, trim, and original equipment tire size. Some recommendations include different figures for the front and rear tires. With higher pressure in rear tires, traction is shifted from the front tires to the rear, which allows for better overall grip and control for those vehicles.
