Perhaps, you might be in a dilemma, not knowing the difference between winter tires and all-season tires. Of course, the two are not the same, and they both have unique features that make them adaptable to specific weather changes. Keep reading as we reveal the significant differences between these two tires.

Winter Tires

They are also known as snow tires. These tires are specifically designed for use on ice and snowy roads. Winter tires are made with treads that have larger gaps than those of all-season tires. This adaptable feature helps to increase traction on icy roads.

Perhaps you're en route to your destination, driving along just fine, and your tire goes flat. You get to the side of the road, open your trunk, and are not sure about what you see. A full-size spare tire is rare in a lot of modern vehicles, but it allows you to drive at full speed and for any distance.

Many vehicles with a spare have a compact temporary tire. These are small and made to go at low speeds of 35 to 40 mph and for distances of up to 50 miles for tire replacement. 

Car batteries are like any other running component of your vehicle. They have a life expectancy. Over the years, technology has extended the life expectancy of car batteries. However, no amount of technological advances have shown a way to build a battery that lasts forever.

Most drivers ignore the battery. Drivers believe that if the car starts, then the battery must be okay. Unfortunately, that is not a true assumption. Good batteries hold a charge of 12.6 volts, which is reduced when the battery is tapped to start your vehicle. 

The tire world is enormous! That's the reason vehicle owners should never make any assumptions that involve tires. Tires may often have similar appearances. That doesn't mean, however, that they have functions that are similar in any way, shape or form. Come to our Lincoln dealership in Lansdale, PA for assistance when it’s time for new tires.

There's no denying that tires are all designed to keep vehicles and passengers safe on the road. 

Having proper tire tread is very important if you want to have traction and control over your vehicle.

If you are not sure whether or not you have enough tread on your tires, you can do a test with a quarter. The Bergey’s Lincoln of Lansdale, PA service team is here to help!
