When to change from summer tires to winter tires

You know when the days start getting shorter and the warm summer air slips away that Winter is coming. Snow tires "winter tires" are an integral part of your safety when you live in snowy, icy or frigid climates, and its important to switch them over. Without grip, most of your car's safety features are less likely to be effective (e.g., anti-lock brakes, all wheel drive and traction control). Call us at Thunder Bay Auto Parts in to do the tire changeover to keep you moving through the seasons.

The importance of changing winter tires to summer tires

The biggest problem you will face when leaving your snow tires on in the summer is the lack of tire life this happens because of the compounds that make up snow tires. They will wear out quickly due to the heat from the highway and start to breakdown, then this leads to a reduction in cornering and grip. Call us if you have any questions on when you should change your tires.
