Fleet Tire Maintenance Programs

You paid good money for your commercial tires. Don’t let that investment go to waste.

Commercial tires and tire repairs can be some of your highest operating expenses. That’s true for almost every commercial vehicle, whether you operate heavy-duty semi trucks in Iowa farm country or last-mile delivery vans in downtown Minneapolis.

We can help you stay on top of regular inspections and maintenance to help you stay on the road longer so you never miss a scheduled delivery.

Why Proactive Tire Maintenance is Important for Your Fleet

Tire maintenance protects more than your tires. With a fleet tire maintenance program, you’re protecting your vehicles, your drivers and your company’s reputation. Consistent tire maintenance can reduce your risk of blowouts and downtime that could result in late shipments. You can also prolong your tire’s service life, enhance fuel efficiency and optimize performance. Managing those variables can go a long way toward protecting your bottom line.

Large Fleet Program

You may face increased expenses if you have a larger commercial fleet, especially when supplying tires for tractors and trailers. Bauer Built Tire & Service offers the same comprehensive services for large fleets to help you manage your inventory on a larger scale.

That includes:

Many of our large fleets are on national account programs with our major suppliers, including Michelin and Continental. You can opt into Michelin Tire Care and the Michelin Commercial Service Network for added layers of coverage nationwide if you use Michlin tires.

You can also participate in other national wholesale tire buying programs. We often work with other tire dealers to support your yards, regardless of your location.

We can establish maintenance standards for your tractors, trailers, retreads and new tires. That may include acceptable tread depth, scrap tire requirements, air pressure standards and much more.

What to Expect from Bauer Built

A comprehensive commercial tire service program from Bauer Built can help you manage your operational costs by minimizing downtime and reducing tire-related issues on the road.
Once your vehicle enters our shop, we will perform a free Tire Check on each wheel position.  This will tell you the tread depth and air pressure in every tire on your truck or trailer.  We will also inspect each tire for irregular wear and missing valve caps.

Once the desired service is completed, you will be provided with a printed Tire Check document for your records.
