Title: Adding air (preferably Nitrogen) & doing this simple step can save $1000s over

..the years for many car owners  O0.

Underinflated and uneven worn tires don't just affect the tires but other aspects of the car too. Therefore add air when needed and rotate the tires regularly can help it:

With the tires off, it's a good time to check the brakes too:

Good practice to re-torque those lugs again around 50-100 miles because tires are constantly spinning while carrying a lot of weight:
