If you live in a region with harsh cold and heavy snowfall in the winter, it’s essential to prepare your car for the season. Snowy weather conditions can bring new hazards and challenges to your usual route.
The right tires, proper driving techniques, vehicle upkeep, supplies, and storage considerations can mean the difference between a car that goes the distance and one that always needs service.
According to Goodyear, the best time to swap your all-season tires with snow tires is in November — “from Thanksgiving to Tax Day.” However, it mostly depends on the conditions in your geographic location. Winter tires are designed for temperatures below 45 degrees Fahrenheit.
