It is never easy driving in snowy conditions as the roads are slippery and it’s very difficult to control the vehicle, especially on steep surfaces. You need winter tires and excellent driving skills to handle situations. As the snowy season is unpredictable it is windy and it is very important to have fit tires to be safe on the road. Use premium tires on your vehicle to have the best experience. We will be suggesting tips to outcome harsh situations in this blog below.

Checking Tire Tread

The deep your tire tread grooves are it's better as it could displace the water or snow through them. It is measured from the top of the tire to the end of the grooves. When roads are covered with snow you should have around 5/32 to have control and stability. The depth is important as the tires compress the snow onto them and act on the movement. In hilly areas, people use chains to have the maximum grip on the roads and lower their tire air pressure also sometimes.

Carrying Spare Tire

It is very important to carry a spare tire with yourself every time especially in snowy conditions as there are fewer people on the road and you might need help. Also, check that your spare tire is ready to use and do not forget to fill your tires with extra 2 points of air as the air can leak if the tire is not used for a long time. In snowy conditions you do not want your car to be stopped for a longer period and using a heater all the time in a stopped car as it generates carbon monoxide which is a smell-less gas but very harmful makes people unconscious and results are very bad for the health.

Your tires should be in perfect condition every time as it is a matter of safety and safety comes first. Hit the road only when you are fully equipped.
