Across the nation, more than 19,000 tire retail, auto dealer and automotive repair facilities distributed tire care RMA-produced NTSW brochures, and many of these also offered free tire care service to motorists.
“Proper tire care is essential to vehicle safety and optimum fuel economy,” said Dan Zielinski, RMA senior vice president of public affairs. “We are grateful to states that are helping to educate motorists to take just five minutes every month to check their tires.”
States supporting NTSW this year included: Alabama, Arkansas, Arizona, California, Connecticut, Delaware, Georgia, Iowa, Kentucky, Maryland, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, West Virginia, and Virginia.
