Are Your Tires Ready for Winter?
Winter tires in stock, at competitive prices!
by Kipp Stienecker, Stevinson Imports Service Manager

Do I Really Need Winter Tires?

The primary concern that our customers express is that they don't want to get "stuck" in the snow (or in the ditch) during the winter. We all know that tires are a compromise. One tire can't be the fastest on the track, most controllable in the snow, and longest wearing.

 

The Ultra High Performance tire that grips the track with tread temperatures of 200° is incompetent in the winter as its tread compound becomes like "hard plastic" below 32°.  Today's tires require tread designs and compounds that maximize long, even wear... not winter traction.  And while many of today's all-season tires (Original Equipment, touring and performance) address some of these issues, they still emphasize longer wear, a quieter ride or greater performance...not winter traction.

 

Only winter tires are designed to excel in the colder temperatures, slush, snow and ice that Denver experiences four or more months a year. It's also important to note that the recent advancements in electronic driver aids, such as ABS and traction control don't provide more traction, they only help prevent drivers from over braking or overpowering the available traction of their tires. The only thing the driver can do to increase traction...to actually get more grip and control, is to install the proper tires. 

 

So call or stop by today to talk to one of our experienced Service or Parts Advisors to find out which winter tire is right for your vehicle and check out the newsletter coupon for free nitrogen and 25% off your alignment with tires purchased and installed at Stevinson Imports.
