Part: Tires

In this video we see how to easily realize when it's time to change the tires on our car. The first thing to do is definitely to take a look at them, visually.

In this case, cheaper does not mean less efficient: you can find it on Ali Express with the code 1005005131471599 for 1.89 euros, free shipping. Or you can use a one euro or two euro coin (depending on whether you are talking about summer or winter tires).
