Winter Tires for your Honda PA
Drivers rarely think about their vehicle's tires until one goes flat or it's time to buy new ones, and most don't even know what kind of tires they are driving on. Let alone that they should change their Hondas tires when the snow flys, even if they have all-season tires. The service team at Reedman Toll Honda thought we would answer some common questions about winter tires.
How are Winter Tires different from regular tires?
Whether your vehicle is riding on all-seasons or summer tires, if you live in Pennsylvania, you have probably heard of "winter tires," but should you get a set? Summer tires prioritize traction above ride comfort. They tend to have wider treads to put more rubber on the road and lower profiles to reduce sidewall flex in aggressive cornering and keep the tires firmly planted. All-season tires perform well enough in most situations to be used year-round, whether the pavement is dry, wet, or covered by snow. However, they fall short when traveling in severe driving conditions, such as deep snow. Winter or snow tires provide better traction in snow, ice, and cold temperatures. They have deeper treads that manage snow and slush better, with more sipes on the edges to improve traction on ice. Winter tires also use rubber compounds that are more pliable in cold weather, enabling them to maintain traction and braking performance.
What are the benefits of winter tires?
Winter tires have a soft rubber compound that remains flexible as temperatures drop for more controlled handling, along with unique tread patterns for enhancing traction on snow and ice by providing channels to drain water and expel snow. Traction is critical, not just to avoid getting stuck, but to help ensure that the car can stop and steer. The superior traction that winter tires deliver is as much as 25 to 50 percent more than all-season tires.
