Top 4 best all- season tires Fire Destination LE2 –If you do not want to change your tires twice a year, this tire is right for you. As Firestone aims to offer the best for their customers, durability is among the first priority when it comes to the tires. This tire is modified to resist the elements and it does indeed take a long while before any wear or tear is noticed. The Milestar MS932 Sport All-Season Tire –Not only are these tires effective for the four seasons, but they are also suitable for many different vehicles. With a speed range of 14 to 20 inches and speed ratings of T, V and H, the tire is designed for all situations and environments. It is also good when it comes to durability. Although there are some negative reviews of noise during high speeds on slick roads, the tires perform remarkably on dry roads. The long lifespan of these tires is due to the twin steel belted-in stallion inside the tire. Due to their high value, you will have to dig deeper into your pockets. Nevertheless, their quality is highly unparallelled.

Top 4 best all- season tires Sumic GTA –This model comes with a size range of 13 to 17 inches and speed rating of V, H, S and T. The Sumic also includes a 45,000 mile warranty. With a smooth and steady handling experience, the tire offers good performance in all weather. It also has reduced road noise and muted noise at lower speeds. Just like the other all-season tires, the Sumic tire is designed to perform effectively on icy roads. These tires are very good for the price. Goodyear Wrangler Radial Tire –Even after being on the market for many years, this tire still remains a good choice for trucks, jeeps and SUVS. It was designed for use on paved roads and stickier situations. It has an average effect when it comes to reducing road noise. However, for most people this model might not provide an aesthetically appealing tread design due to its age. That might be the only major flaw, because the Wrangler Radial Tire is quite durable and reliable.

Tire Service Guide Keep tires well-inflated –A pressure gauge is one of the tools you will need to keep accurate tire pressure. Proper tire inflation is necessary for safety as well as optimum tire performance and fuel economy. Maintain recommended inflation pressure levels –Just as vehicle manuals insist, it is critical to maintain recommended tire inflation pressure levels. It enhances the tires’ durability and extends the lifespan of tread. Underinflation is the major cause of tire failure and it also causes the tire components to separate. It also reduces tire load capacity, which can eventually lead to mechanical and heat damage. On the other hand, over inflation can cause stiffness and may even lead to impact damages. Tires should not spin excessively –Whether you are stuck in snow, mud, or ice, this is one of the things you should really avoid doing. Spinning may generate centrifugal forces and can result in sudden tire explosions. This is quite unsafe because it may lead to vehicle damage and also expose the driver to injuries.

Tire Service Guide Never attempt to mount your own tires –Improper tire mounting may lead to severe injuries due to potential tire explosions. There are set procedures and measurements to be maintained when mounting the tires and you have to make sure that everything is done correctly. Always ensure that you lubricate the tire contact surfaces. Do not forget the beads and avoid applying volatile substances to bead seating. Regularly check your tires for wear –All new tires have tread wear indicators that help inform you when the treads wear out. They generally appear as smooth banks in the grooves when they become worn. It becomes noticeable when they wear to the 16cm level. Keep in mind that the more the tires wear out, the more susceptible they are to penetration. Check tires for damage –This act prioritizes safety. You don’t need to risk an accident by using a damaged vehicle on the road. Check tires for damage at least once a month to ensure everything is in working condition.

Top Things You Should Know About Tire Repair Repair punctures that fall within tread area –Before a puncture is repaired, you should know where the damage is located. Repairs are limited to the tread area. Note that when a tire is punctured beyond the tread area, it needs to be replaced. Any repair that takes place beyond the tread area is definitely an unsafe repair. Don’t repair a badly damaged tread –There is no use replacing a tire that will be of no use on the road. There are a few possibilities for repair but it is completely discouraged. Repairs should not overlap –Sometimes the puncture occurs on an existing repair. This immediately calls for a replacement tire. You are strongly discouraged from overlapping repairs as this is quite unsafe. This is why you should take your damaged tires to a tire repair specialist--you never know what pre- existing repairs your tire may have.

Top Things You Should Know About Tire Repair Tire should be repaired well with a patch and plug assembly –When reviewing your repaired tire, ensure that it is repaired well using a patch and plug assembly. The plug only technique is not allowed as it may cause the tire to be prone to more damage. The plug simply secures the injury long enough for the tire to re-inflate. This is why the patch is also needed; it works to seal the damage after repair, eventually melting away and leaving no sign of repair. Repair tires with a diameter greater than ¼” –Size is key when it comes to punctures. It is important to note that when the puncture is bigger than ¼ inch, it is not safe to repair it. Such repairs require special attention and may need to be replaced completely. Ensure tire is removed from rim before repair –This enables the damaged area to be clearly inspected, ensuring that the repair is professionally and excellently undertaken.

Why You Should Have Your Tires Serviced Regularly Increased safety –There are a hoard of problems that can be identified when the wheels are being serviced. This can protect you and your car from a lot of issues and potential risks. During the servicing, your technician will not only focus on the tires, but they will also check other aspects of the car like the brakes and the suspension. This can help identify parts that are worn out and need to be replaced. Ultimately, this can save you a lot of trouble and money in the long run. Smoother driving –When it comes to cars, accidents can happen at any time. However, making sure that your tires are regularly serviced can greatly reduce chances of blowouts and other wheel-related damages. It can also ensure that you have a smoother ride with better handling and performance.

Why You Should Have Your Tires Serviced Regularly Better fuel efficiency –There are numerous ways you can improve your car’s fuel efficiency. Keeping your wheels in the best shape is one of them. Wheels that are not properly aligned have a higher rolling resistance. This increases fuel consumption because the engine has to work harder and burn more fuel to move the car. Increase tire longevity –No matter how frequently you drive, you should always have your wheels serviced regularly. This will help you increase the longevity of your tires. In addition to mileage, there are other factors that lead to tires prematurely wearing out. Some of these include improper tire pressure as well as not having tires rotated. During a wheel service, all of these factors are checked and corrected. Ultimately, your tires are able to last longer without any potential risks to you or your car.

8 Reasons to get winter tires for your car Assured Safety –From the results of several industry tests, it is clear that winter tires are the most preferable and safest tires to use during winter. They are formulated to maintain good performance in harsh weather conditions, sustaining quality driving and traction in weather as cold as 7 degrees. Winter tires are not just for snow and ice –The first impression you might get when you hear about the winter tires is that there are few differences between them and ordinary tires. While winter tires are definitely ideal for driving on ice, they are specially formulated for the winter season in general. The rubber compound that each tire contains is modified for effective performance in all winter conditions.

8 Reasons to get winter tires for your car Insurance discount is available –Winter tires come with some really good incentives. As they are known to increases safe driving, installing winter tires earns you an auto insurance discount. While discounts are typically about 5% off payments, they do differ as they are determined by independent providers. The tires are long lasting –Winter tires save you from all the agony of tire repair. These tires are specially designed for the cold weather and hence claimed to be very long lasting. Moreover, the durable rubber compounds used to make winter tires also contribute to them being long lasting.

8 Reasons to get winter tires for your car Winter tires are mandatory in some regions –While this policy may not hold true for all areas, it is worth a mention. In some countries like Canada, winter tires must be installed on all vehicles, particularly during the peak winter months of December and March. Enjoy increased traction –Because winter tires are especially designed for snow and ice, they allow the driver to enjoy increased traction while accelerating. Drivers also benefit because said traction is maintained even during an increase in the directional stability at speed.

8 Reasons to get winter tires for your car They have unique treads –As compared to the normal treads, the winter tire treads are larger and wider. This makes the difference with regards to performance. The treads are basically used to wick the moisture away from the main point of contact with the tires, hence enhancing control. The treads also enable the vehicle to move through slick surfaces while maintaining traction because they are able to grip through the ice and snow. Offer easier and safer braking –Imagine how hard it is to start up a vehicle in slick conditions. Now, think about how hard stopping a vehicle can be in such conditions. Winter tires offer the perfect solution. Studies claim that installing winter tires can actually reduce stopping distances by 37%, viably decreasing your chances of having an accident.
