I bought a new car and it came with four-seasons tires. Should I get Winter tires? Are the Winter tires much better?And yes, it does snow a lot in my state.
ya there is one , aluminum
yes a phase 2 nmeumonic flux capacitor . now go to bed.
I have used snow and ice tires for the last 14 years on three different vehicles. They have saved me many times over from having an accident. Four tires mounted on rims will run about $400 to $600. I have $1,000 deductible. They pay for themselves when just one accident is avoided. I recommend Bridgestone Blizzaks. Mine came from The Tire Rack. You will do much better with a set of snow and ice tires. They provide an amazing amount of traction. Synthetic motor oil. 0w20 or 5w20 to ease starting. Be certain the window washer fluid is rated for the temps in Kansas. Always keep the gas tank half full or higher. Don't let the gas gauge get below 1/2. You don't want any water freezing in the gas tank. Good Luck
Winter tires are not like All-Season tires. Winter tires have special rubber compounds designed to improve traction, handling and braking in all cold weather conditions, not just ice and snow. Winter Tires are designed to deliver safety and control in snow, ice, and cold weather conditions. Many people think that all-season tires can deliver this same performance, but this is not true. The superior traction that winter tires deliver, as much as a 25 to 50 percent increase over all-season tires, can very well be the margin you need to stop in time or turn to avoid trouble.
Four season tires aren't very good in the snow and they also lose a lot of grip when the temperature gets really cold, even if the pavement is dry. Get 4 snow tires, you will not regret it. BTW Tsunami is perfectly wrong. There is such a thing as snow tires. They are indentified with a snowflake symbol on the sidewall and their thread is made with much softer compounds than other tires. As a result of this they retain traction even in very low temperatures, but also wear out much faster when used in warm weather.
