If you are like most Canadians, you can't wait for spring to officially arrive and warmer weather to become part of our daily lives. You may also be wondering when the right time has come to install your summer tires.

We are all looking forward to installing our summer tires and our summer wheels on our vehicle. The problem is that it may still be too cold outside. The fact of the matter is that summer tires lose their effectiveness when the weather drops below 7°C.

When that happens, the compound on your tire will harden which not only increases wear and tear on your tires, but it also increases stopping distances while decreasing overall stability.

We also have to keep in mind that once out of every three years according to the weather network, we get a snowstorm in April in Canada. The last thing you want is to be caught on winter tires during that last snowstorm.

It is therefore wise to wait a few more weeks for installing summer tires on your vehicle however, nothing prevents you from booking your appointment right now so that you avoid the crowds that will come in the next few weeks.

Our team will help you if you need new tires as well. We have a range of tires in stock and ready to go including tires that can improve fuel economy, performance, comfort, or off-road capability. Give us a call today to learn more!
