Winter Tires
DRIVE WITH CONFIDENCE THIS WINTER
The loss of traction on ice or snow-covered roads may become critical for safety as the temperature drops below 7°Cs. At Jim Pattison Hyundai Surrey, we can make sure you get the correct set of winters tires with the best service from the team that knows your vehicle the best.
3-Peaked Mountain/snowflake Tires
For city driving, 3-peaked mountain/snowflake tires are considered the best type of snow tire. These tires have a specific tread pattern and rubber compound designed to provide excellent traction on snow and ice, reducing the risk of collisions. The "3-peaked mountain/snowflake" symbol is a certification mark that indicates that the tire has undergone rigorous testing and has met strict standards for snow traction.
Matching Winter Tires
We recommend using four matching winter tires with the same tread type and depth. At minimum, ensure you have two matching winter tires on your front axle, even with a 4x4. Mixing tires can compromise stability and should be avoided.
Tire Air Pressure
Cold temperatures can cause tire pressure to drop. Check your tire pressure at least monthly, especially when temperatures fall below 7°C. Underinflated tires reduce road contact, increasing the risk of skidding and loss of control.
TIRE REBATES
Periodically, tire manufacturers offer promotional rebates to provide even greater value when you purchase 4 new select tires.
