Tires are the only point of contact that the car has with the surface of the road, just like we human whereby our shoes are the only point of contact with the floor when we are walking. Can you imagine what will happen when you put on a slippery or a worn out pair of shoes?
Would you usually go out with a pair of shoes with a slippery base? Same thing goes for the car, when you think that it is time for a change of tires, you should get it done. Why choose to risk your life over cost? Also, in order to improve your handling, you are always advice to pump to the correct pressure at all times. When you pump to the correct pressure, the contact from the tires to the surface of the road will be increase to maximum.
Although this would seems to be a hassle, but at the same time you are also reducing cost as the lifespan of the tires will be prolong. When you have a set of tires pump under pressure, you will realise that the side of the tires will wear out faster than the center. Likewise, if you have over pressure, the center will wear out faster than the side. In both situations, you will be force to change your tires at a very short time as the it no longer provides the grip needed.
Do you also know that usually the normal lifespan of a tire are about two years? if you can delay the time you change your tyres by another year, when others change three sets of tires, you would have only change two. You are saving costs.
