Winter vs. Summer vs. All-Season Tires near Bay Shore, NY
Knowing what type of tires to have on during the respective time of year can save you a lot of trouble. Because of this, we at New Baby Honda near Bay Shore have taken it upon ourselves to introduce you to the options at your disposal. Read on to learn about seasonal tires!
Winter
When the snow begins to fall and ice starts forming on the roads, you’ll know that winter has arrived in full force. Most often, it won’t take long to notice that your vehicle isn’t maintaining as good of a grip as usual. For that reason, this time of year warrants the use of winter tires, which come with a greater amount of slots and sipes, complemented with deeper tread depths. These allow the tires to sink deeper into the soft material below, making sure you attain a steadfast hold. Additionally, the soft rubber they are made of is better at conforming to the cold temperatures. Don’t use these in warmer seasons though, as it will result in them quickly degrading.
Summer
The summertime brings a lot of things to look forward to, like stunning days out at Bay Shore Manor Park and warm sunshine. But because of this, you may also want to visit our Service Department so that you can have a set of summer tires fitted to your Honda CR-V or Accord. That’s because they have been crafted with flatter surfaces, which are more adept at gripping dry and wet roads alike. To let the air inside expand comfortably without compromising the integrity of the tire, they are also made with a more elastic type of rubber. You won’t want to have these when there’s ice on Highway 27 though, as they will afford you little control over your car.
All-Season
If you find the prospect of having to replace your tires multiple times of year to be tiring, then you may be interested to learn of our all-season components. These differ in that they are designed to help you handle a broad range of weather conditions, letting you have them on at all times of year. However, if you find yourself facing particularly harsh conditions, then it may be more worthwhile to select summer or winter tires for your journeys. Otherwise, these should be more than suitable for your future trips! Schedule an appointment to have a set equipped to your Odyssey or Ridgeline today.
