Are Summer Tires Right for Your Vehicle?
Summer tires are designed to help drivers get the most out of their vehicles in the warmer weather. Summer tires (also known as performance tires) are an ideal options for drivers with vehicles that are built for speed. A few of the benefits of choosing summer performance tires include:
- Increased traction and grip in the summer thanks to a distinct rubber formula that softens as we reach peak summer temperatures
- Reinforced sides for increased durability
- Increased cornering and breaking capabilities, as well as superior braking at all speeds thanks to specialized tread patterns that allow for more contact with the road
- Better performance in wet conditions thanks to sipes that propel water off the road, keeping your tires in contact with the road surface at all times
When it Comes to Performance Tires, Size Matters
When it’s time to choose your summer tires, it’s important that you choose tires that are properly sized to fit your vehicle. While it is becoming popular in some circles to choose larger wheels for aesthetic purposes, it’s important to note that this can impact your vehicle’s performance and fuel consumption—not to mention causing potential safety concerns.
