Meineke Car Care Center on Carlisle Pike in Mechanicsburg will make sure you have the best tires for the nasty weather ahead.
Enjoy today because the weather is predicted to change overnight to cloduy with rain and chances of a bit of snow. And although the rainy weather is expected to clear, forecasters are saying that, by the end of the week, we can expect some rain and/or snow showers.
If that happens, you can expect streets to be slick and difficult to navigate. So check your tires now to make sure they're in good shape. If you haven't changed to winter tires and you plan to do so, now's the time to do it.
"Any day now, a few million drivers will make their vehicles safer in a way most Americans never consider — by switching to winter tires. It costs money, but less than most people expect, and the difference in steering, accelerating and braking is enough that drivers in many parts of the world wouldn’t consider trusting the same tires on a sunny, 90-degree Fahrenheit day and a damp, 40F one, much less in an actual winter storm," according to autos.yahoo.com.
Autos.yahoo.com quotes a tire expert explaining, "'The difference a winter tire makes is almost unimaginable. ... There’s no comparison of braking distance. Not just on ice and snow, but also on wet, cold and slippery surfaces.'
"Part of the difference is obvious: Winter tires, sometimes called snow tires, have different tread patterns. Like an iceberg, though, 90% of the substance is hidden under the surface. Winter tires are made of rubber compounds created to improve traction at low temperatures."
They're worth it in improved safety, experts say.
