The type of tires you have on your vehicle is important, especially if you live in an area with cold winter temperatures. You need to have the right kind of tires that can perform in this type of weather. New vehicles at JIM SCHMIDT CHEVROLET-BUICK INC. in Hicksville, OH typically have all-season tires. If you currently drive a vehicle with all-season tires, then you may need to change your tires to winter tires.
All-season tires are versatile and can give you year-round performance in many types of weather conditions. If you live in an area that experiences mild winter weather, then all-season tires will perform great in these conditions.
If you live in an area that experiences long winters with freezing weather, then you should switch your all-season tires to winter tires. Winter tires have deeper treads for better traction in the snow and on ice. Winter tires are made of rubber that remains flexible in cold temperatures, which improves the tires' grip on the road.
