Winter tires
Putting winter tires on your vehicle:
- improves traction and control in frost, snow and icy conditions
- shortens braking distances by as much as 25%
Check your tires regularly for wear and pressure. Cold weather can bring down your tire pressure, and worn or damaged tires make it harder to drive safely.
Salt and Winter Maintenance
What can I do at home to help keep salt out of the environment?
