The Importance of Having Good Tires Installed Year-Round for Any Season

The Importance of Having Good Tires Installed Year-Round for Any Season

As the seasons change, so do the road conditions and weather patterns across the United States. In North Carolina, we rarely see the same seasonal challenges in winter as our northern friends, but that doesn't mean we should overlook the importance of having good tires installed year-round. While you might not be in the market for winter tires (although we have them available for anyone who needs a set), unexpected weather changes can and do occur. Many drivers around the Wilmington, NC and Rocky Mount, NC areas like to run a set of all-season tires that tend to be a good catchall for any inclement weather conditions that come through in winter and summer. But no tire lasts forever, and it's a good idea to visually inspect your set regularly, including before the start of a new season.

All-Season Tires for Versatility and Performance

Living in a region without severe snowfall means you can rely on all-season tires for the majority of the year. All-season tires are designed to provide a balanced performance in various weather conditions, including light rain and mild winter weather. With a tread pattern optimized for wet and dry surfaces, these tires offer reliable traction and handling for everyday driving. At Delaney Tire & Auto, you shop for all-season tires and other tire types online from the comfort of your home.

The Importance of Monitoring Tread Depth

Tread depth directly affects your tire's ability to maintain traction, especially in wet or slippery conditions. As the tread depth decreases, the tire's ability to effectively disperse water and maintain grip also diminishes. In the off-chance of unexpected inclement weather, such as a sudden snowfall or heavy rainstorm, having tires with optimal tread depth can make a significant difference in your vehicle's handling and your overall safety on the road.

When to Consider Changing Tires

While the frequency of snowfall may be rare in Wilmington and Rocky Mount, North Carolina, it's still essential to be prepared for any surprises. A good rule of thumb is to consider changing your tires when they reach a tread depth of 4/32 of an inch or lower. This is the point at which all-season tires may struggle to provide adequate traction, especially under slippery or wet conditions. By routinely inspecting your tires and monitoring the tread depth, you can proactively plan for a tire change and ensure optimal safety on the road.

Tire Rebates: A Cost-Saving Opportunity

Now that you understand the significance of tire tread depth for inclement weather, it's worth noting that you can save money on your tire purchase through tire rebates. Many tire manufacturers and retailers offer these rebates to incentivize customers to choose their brand or shop at their store. By taking advantage of rebates, you can offset the cost of purchasing new tires when the tread is low, ensuring your vehicle is equipped for any sudden changes in weather conditions. At Delaney Tire & Auto, we promote tire rebates that can help you save on your purchase.

To benefit from tire rebates, research available offers from reputable tire manufacturers. Look for rebates or promotions applicable to the specific tire models you're interested in purchasing. Once you've selected the tires that meet your needs, make your purchase from a participating retailer or authorized dealer. Be sure to keep copies of your proof of purchase and any required documentation for the rebate submission process. By leveraging tire rebates, you can make the necessary tire change when your all-season tires are low on tread and save money in the process.

Getting Low on Tread? Swap to New Tires at Delaney Tire & Auto

Changing tires when they are low on tread is a precautionary measure that ensures you have better traction in case of unexpected inclement weather. By proactively assessing your tire's tread depth, as well as monitoring their air pressure levels, you can prioritize your safety on the road no matter the season. Visit Delaney Tire & Auto for all-season tires and take advantage of any current tire rebates available!
