For cars that do a lot of freeway miles
Wheel alignment
If the car drifts on the Tollway or one tire is wearing on its edge, get the alignment checked. You get a printout of the readings before and after.Mount and balance
A shake in the steering wheel at highway speed often points to balance. Tires are balanced on a computer balancer while you wait.Tire rotation
Freeway miles add up fast. Rotating on schedule keeps the set wearing together.
Westchase roads and the Tollway
Westchase sits south of Westheimer and west of Gessner, with the Westpark Tollway along its south side and Beltway 8, the Sam Houston Tollway, cutting through the middle. A lot of the driving out here is on those tollways and the freeways they feed. To reach us, you leave all of that behind and take Westheimer east.
Westheimer is the north edge of Westchase, so most of the trip is one road. You cross Gessner, keep going through the lights to Hillcroft, and Winrock is the next corner after that. No tollway, no freeway, and you can turn back the same way.
What highway miles show up as
Sustained highway speed is where small problems become easy to feel. A wheel out of balance usually shows as a shake in the steering wheel or the seat once you are well above city speeds. An alignment that is slightly off shows as a drift you keep correcting, or a tire wearing smooth on one shoulder.
Rotation keeps the front and rear tires wearing at the same rate. Tire makers commonly suggest rotating every 5,000 to 8,000 miles, and on a long daily commute that comes around quickly. Your owner's manual has the number for your car.
When storms close the roads
In major storms, high water has closed tollway lanes and ramps out here before. When the roads are wet, tread depth decides how well the tire clears water at speed. If a set is getting low on tread and you spend a lot of time on the tollway, replace them before the rain does it for you.
After driving through deep water, check the tires once things dry out. Debris and potholes under the water can cut a sidewall or bend a wheel without you feeling much at the time.
