Three tire tips for your Kia this fall

Now is a great time to start thinking about tires. Yes, we do mean start thinking about winter tires but it's also a good time to check out your current tires and see if summer wasn't too harsh on them. We know that the last thing you want to think about right now is winter, but our job is to help and with that in mind we have put together a few tips regarding your tires that unfortunately do include something about winter…

Our goal here is just to help you make sure you are ready, but yes, like you, we hope that we still have a long time before the first snow falls!

In any case, here are three tips regarding your tires that we hope will help.

Check the condition of your summer tires

Your summer tires should be checked when fall rolls around. Temperatures are going down, which can impact the stability and traction of your summer by making the rubber harden. If your summer tires are not in good condition or they are not properly inflated, the upcoming colder weather and wet roads might pose a danger. Now is a good time to check if your summer tires are still in good condition!

Start thinking about winter tires

We all know that the market for a wide range of products has been impacted in recent years and supply is affected as well. The tire market is no different and once again this year, we expect a small shortage of winter tires, especially as we move closer to December. If you need to replace your winter tires, now is a great time to start thinking about buying them so you have the most options at your disposal.

Check your wheels

Now is also a great time to start thinking about your winter wheels and to check the condition of your current summer wheels. If they were damaged this summer, now is a great time to have your summer wheels repaired. And like winter tires, winter wheels might be in shorter supply this year so it's a good time to start thinking about that too.

And if your current summer tires are in great condition and you have your winter tires, then we would recommend that you book your appointment early so that you can get winter tires installed exactly when you want!
