Tempting as it might be to leave your winter tires on for the summer, our tire specialists strongly advise against this practice. Driving with winter tires in summer can increase stopping distances, make it difficult to maneuver the vehicle, and also increase the risk of hydroplaning on wet pavement.
Keeping your winter tires on during summer does not just make driving difficult; it’s also dangerous. It increases the risk of a blowout because the rubber compound in winter tires isn’t designed to dispel heat.
Equally important, if you continue to use winter tires in summer, your vehicle will need more fuel. This is not good for your pocket or the environment.
All vehicles should use all-season tires, be it a Honda or a light truck. These tires help to make driving in wet and dry conditions easy.
All-season tires generally have low road noise, great traction and are long-lasting and durable. They are also available in a wide range of styles and sizes for all kinds of vehicles including sedans, minivans, and SUVs.
There are three things that you should keep in mind if you’re thinking about buying a new set of all-season tires.
The first factor that will influence your decision is the type of vehicle you own. For example, if you own a minivan, you’ll need a different kind of all-season tire than the one you’ll get fitted if you drive an SUV.
The second thing to consider is your driving habits. The type of tire you’ll buy will be dependent on whether you drive mostly within the city or on highways.
The last and most important factor that will decide your purchase decision is your budget. While it’s true that often a tire’s quality is proportional to its price, it’s not always true. Some tires are affordable as well as high-performing. You may need to do an extra bit of research or get the right guidance to find the best tires in your budget.
Treadwear and tire speed are important elements that decide the quality of any tire, including your all-season tires.
The treadwear grade is related to the expected life of the tire. The amount of tread on a tire is critical in determining how well it will vacate water to maintain contact with the road in the rain. If your tires wear out quickly, your safety may be at risk. Therefore higher the treadwear of your tire, the better is its quality.
The tire speed rating is the maximum speed that a tire can safely carry a load for a sustained amount of time in ideal conditions.
Tire companies offer tires with different treadwear and tire speed. Go online to do your research and read reviews car owners who’ve used their products. This will help you understand the benefits and downsides of each brand.
