Cadillac produces many top models, including the CTS and the Escalade. The high-quality design may still face concerns navigating icy and snow-covered roads. Visitors to Young Cadillac Owosso might ask about winter tires designed to deal with inclement conditions.
Winter Tires and Ice and Snow
Winter tires come designed to get better traction from the road, as visible with the treads. Treads refer to the gaps on a tire engineered to improve the tire's ability to grip the road. Treads also help clear water from under the tires when the vehicle travels on wet streets and highways.
All-season and summer tires' design might prove lacking when dealing with winter conditions on Owosso roads. That's why so many safety-conscious drivers may replace them with winter options.
Unique Materials
When manufacturers produce winter tires, they add special materials to the mix that allow them to gain better traction in cold weather. If the temperature drops below a certain level, the materials could maintain better traction than an all-season tire in the same conditions.
Changing Tires During Oil Changes and Rotations
When the winter nears, and so do routine maintenance due dates for oil changes and tire rotations, a chance arrives to put the winter selections on the vehicle.
Environmental Factors
Cadillac owners might not realize that extreme hot and cold temperatures might degrade tires. The special material used to produce winter tires is intended for winter weather. Someone who uses standard tires throughout the year might find the winter detracts from their durability.
Sizing and Matching the Tires
Not all winter tires are the same, so a Cadillac owner needs to find the appropriate size from a preferred manufacturer. A technician may assist someone looking to choose the appropriate selection. Our service department could help those needing the tires installed and balanced.
