Here at Tom Hesser BMW in Scranton, PA, it’s important to us that you are able to tackle the winter months with confidence. That’s why we recommend that you get winter tires put on once temperatures drop below 45 degrees. Read on to learn more about this simple process.
What is a Tire Change?
A seasonal tire change is the practice of replacing your vehicle’s tires with winter tires during colder months. With increased traction capabilities, winter tires are designed specifically to perform on icy and snowy roads. The tire change process is simple: all you need to do is visit our service center, where we’ll remove your current tires and install the winter tires onto your car’s wheels. Yep – it’s really that simple!
What Are the Benefits of a Winter Tire Change?
- Improved Traction: Winter tires come with a tread pattern that improves your grip on slippery roads. Therefore, you’ll have an easier time navigating unpredictable surfaces.
- Quicker Braking: When you drive with winter tires, your stopping distance will be shorter on slippery surfaces. This will reduce your risk of an accident.
- All-Season Tire Protection: When you drive on slippery roads with your regular all-season tires, you are putting stress on them. Therefore, by using winter tires, you’re expanding the lifespan of your all-season tires.
- Compliance: In some areas, winter tires are legally required for your safety and the safety of others. Check your local regulations to see if you are legally required to use winter tires.
