All-Season vs. Summer Tires: Choosing the Right Tire for NJ
New Jersey drivers face varied weather conditions. Choosing the right tires is essential for safety and performance. Stonehouse Fuel & Service explains the differences between all-season and summer tires to help you make an informed decision.
All-Season Tires: The Versatile Option
All-season tires are designed to provide a balance of performance in various conditions, including dry, wet, and light snow. They are a popular choice for their versatility and convenience.
- Pros: Good performance in moderate conditions, longer tread life, convenient for year-round use.
- Cons: Not ideal for extreme temperatures or heavy snow/ice.
Summer Tires: Performance-Oriented
Summer tires are engineered for optimal performance in warm weather conditions. They offer superior grip, handling, and braking on dry and wet roads.
- Pros: Excellent grip and handling in warm weather, shorter braking distances, enhanced cornering.
- Cons: Poor performance in cold temperatures, snow, and ice; shorter tread life compared to all-season tires.
Which Tire is Right for You?
Consider these factors when choosing between all-season and summer tires:
- Driving Conditions: Do you experience harsh winters in your area?
- Performance Needs: Do you prioritize performance and handling?
- Budget: Summer tires may require an additional set of tires for winter use.
