Read on as our team of automotive specialists here at Downtown Lincoln discuss the importance of installing winter tires on your vehicle
Why Do I Need Winter Tires?
As the mercury drops, the rubber compounds in your Lincoln’s all-season tires lose their soft and malleable properties, thus reducing their effectiveness on snow and ice-covered roads. As a general rule of thumb, once the weather begins to fall below 7 degrees Celsius, it’s in your best interest to install winter tires on your Lincoln model.
Here are a few reasons why Canadian drivers swap out their all-seasons for winter tires:
Reduced Stopping Distance
The distinct tread patterns of winter tires feature deep channels and biting edges that have been engineered to enhance your vehicle's braking capabilities on snow and ice. Winter tires substantially reduce stopping distances, providing you valuable time to respond to unexpected driving situations.
Improved Stability & Control
Winter tires are designed to enhance your Lincoln’s handling, responsiveness, and stability, especially when driving in adverse weather conditions. Their unique tread patterns and ability to remain soft and malleable in the cold allow them to maintain optimal levels of grip, even on snowy and icy roads.
An Investment in Safety
The enhanced cold-weather performance of winter tires can help protect you and your passengers from accidents. Additionally, most insurance providers in Ontario acknowledge the contribution of winter tires to vehicle safety by offering discounts for their installation on your vehicle.
