Wheels
At Rowleys Tires and Automotive Services we want your vehicle to look its best and having a nice set of wheels or rims is important. We offer a great selection of custom wheels. The way the wheel looks is usually our customer’s first choice in choosing them, but rims can affect your vehicle’s performance too. Our team at Rowleys Tires and Automotive Services are experts in making your car or truck look good and ride even better. You will always receive expert advice when you are making a decision on purchasing wheels.
Below are some steps that will guide you when purchasing wheels that will ensure your satisfaction in both performance and appearance.
Alloy Wheels
Some alloy wheels are designed to encourage cool air flow over the brakes to prevent overheating. The alloy itself can help dissipate heat. These wheels are manufactured with a clear coat to make cleaning easier and help protect the finish.
Plus-Size Rims
If you want to improve performance and add a sportier look to your vehicle, think about plus-sizing your rims. This process involves a larger wheel with a lower sidewall tire. Your steering will be more responsive and your car or truck will hold the road better. Your ride might be harder due to less cushioning by the lower sidewall tires.

Wheel Alignment along with tire/wheel balancing will help your tires last much longer, but they are two different things. A wheel alignment may be needed if your vehicle is pulling to the left or right when the steering wheel is in the straight ahead position or if your tires are wearing unevenly.
Coolant, also known as antifreeze is found in your vehicle’s radiator. The coolant serves a few purposes, the most important is keeping water in your radiator and engine from freezing in cold temperatures and from boiling over in the summer from the hot weather. Radiators are normally filled with a 50/50 mixture of antifreeze and water. Another function of the coolant is lubrication of the moving parts it comes in contact with, like the water pump.
Our Master Certified Technicians can perform a computerized engine analysis on your vehicle to keep your vehicles engine operating perfectly. Today’s vehicle engine operates completely different than days gone by. Your engine is a highly sophisticated piece of equipment and present day regulations demand that vehicles be equipped with electronic engine control systems that help curb carbon emissions and increase fuel efficiency.
Your vehicle’s air conditioning system is responsible for many aspects of the cooling and heating system in your vehicle. You know that the air conditioning system cools your car in the summer, but it also plays an important role in the heating, defrosting, air filtering and humidity control, providing you with a clear view of the road.
