Tires play a major role in the performance of your vehicle, so it’s important to gloss over your selection when purchasing and installing new tires. While winter tires are ideal for snowy and icy conditions, they may not be necessary in moderate climates. Here are reasons all-season tires may be a suitable option for you.
Snow tires can be troublesome to install and remove, or time-consuming at the least. In addition, you also need to maintain and properly store them when not in use. With all-season tires, a tire inspection as part of a routine maintenance is enough to keep them in shape.
All-season tires have a specific rubber composition that make them particularly adept at commuting under varying road conditions. The treads also have specific tread patterns to more effectively wick away water, slush, and ice. The rubber maintains their surface structure even under constant temperature fluctuations. Unless you’re dealing with highly icy and snowy terrain, all-season tires are adequate for day-to-day driving.
All-season tires are also available for various vehicle types, from compact cars to heavy-duty pickup trucks. They’re also available for commercial vehicles. The wide availability makes them easy to obtain, whether you need just one or an entire set.
Most modern tires are designed to last an average 80,000 miles. These tires hold up well, even under temperatures as low as 40 degrees Fahrenheit. They can stay flexible even under cold temperatures that can cause ordinary rubber to crack.
Our local tire shop contains a rich inventory of all-season tires for most vehicle segments. During a checkup, one of our maintenance advisors can determine whether your car is due for a tire replacement.
