Having the right tires for your vehicle is crucial for safe driving. At Ford of Northampton, we want to make sure you have the optimal tires for your needs. In this blog post, we'll compare the different types of tires we offer so you can make an informed decision.
Which Tires are Good for Summer Driving?
During the summer months, the roads around Holyoke are hotter, which can cause your tires to wear more quickly. We sometimes recommend our all-season radials, which provide great traction in dry and wet conditions. The tread can resist hydroplaning on wet roads. For Westfield drivers who want a sportier ride, we offer high-performance summer tires. The soft rubber compound provides incredible grip and responsive handling.
Is it Good to Repair Tires?
While it may seem tempting to simply patch a tire, we don't recommend it. Repaired tires can fail suddenly if the damage is too severe. For your safety, we advise replacing any tire that you cannot reliably fix. Our trained technicians will thoroughly inspect your tires and provide an honest assessment. If someone cannot repair the tire, we'll help you find the right replacement.
