Are you wearing sneakers in the snow or winter boots? How about your car?

Are you wearing sneakers in the snow or winter boots?

If your car has all-season tires it could be like wearing sneakers. It is possible to walk down a snowy, icy sidewalk wearing sneakers--but it's a lot easier and safer to do it in proper boots.All-season tires are designed to cope with all sorts of conditions, including dry roads and rain, but are not optimized for any one condition. They are generally made from harder materials that don't conform to the road surface as well in low temperatures. Snow tires have tread patterns specifically designed to dig down and bite into snow and ice, plus they are made from softer rubber compounds that retain their flexibility in cold weather, allowing the tire to better conform to the surface of the road.

Save money on tires

Who wouldn't want to save a little money nowadays? Tire maintenance will save you money on tires. One very important thing to remember is maintaining the proper air pressure in your car tires. Low pressure can makes tires wear out faster, and it can lead to tires overheating, risking a dangerous failure at speed. It takes only a couple minutes every month to check your tire pressure. And don’t forget to check the spare; you don’t want to wait until you get a flat to find out it needs air, too.

Don't wait until the steering wheel shakes!

Don't wait until your steering wheel is shaking.....

Tire balancing is important to keeping your vehicle in good mechanical condition. If it is only attended to when there is a noticeable vibration in the ride or is felt via the steering wheel, it may have already caused considerable stress on your vehicle.

Always balance new tires when they are installed.

Check tires for proper balance whenever tire rotation is performed at intervals of 6,000 miles (Adirondack Tire offers free rotation for the life of your tires every 6,000 miles).

Have any tire which is repaired, balanced again to compensate for the weight change produced by the patch and the damage being fixed.

Snow Tires vs Studded Tires

Laura Hasney - Wednesday, November 17, 2010



Most people buy snow tires not studded because snows are good for snow and ice but studded are for ice only. Studded do their job on ice but are not as effective on snow, they are noisy and can cause damage to dry pavement. M&S is a mud and... snow tire where the snow flake in the mountain is on snow tires.
