Home  /   National Tire Safety Week

National Tire Safety Week (NTSW) is an annual initiative of the U.S. Tire Manufacturers Association (USTMA) that aims to educate motorists about simple yet essential steps for proper tire care, safety, and maintenance as an essential part of road safety. The initiative is supported by USTMA members and acknowledged by the National Lieutenant Governors Association in its 2025 tire safety resolution.  

NTSW 2025 Banner with theme: Check Your Tires. Protect What Matters.

Tires are one of the most important safety components of the car and the only part that touches the road and, as such, critical to road safety. That’s why tire care and maintenance should be a top priority for all motorists.  

USTMA recommends drivers check their tire pressure monthly, regularly check their tire tread depth, and ensure their tires are rotated and properly aligned. With routine maintenance by a tire service professional, tires can maintain optimum performance and service life. 

These are some of the simple steps you can take to play your PART in checking your tires to protect what matters.

  • Check Inflation PRESSURE Monthly
  • Get ALIGNMENT Checked by a tire service professional
  • ROTATE Your Tires 
  • Inspect the TREAD of Your Tires
