Taking this into consideration, we have compiled a few tips that should be helpful when choosing winter tires for your GM.

If you do not have winter tires installed on your GM, now is a good time to do so

Tires not designed for winter use are at a disadvantage when it comes to cold weather. When the outside temperature drops below 7°C, these tires will harden, which will result in less grip and braking performance. In other words, when the temperature consistently drops below 7° on a regular basis, it is time to install winter tires. It usually occurs at the end of October, so now is a good time to schedule your appointment so that you are prepared for the upcoming cold weather.

Check your GM's winter tires

One aspect that is often overlooked is the condition of the tires before they are installed. The manner in which our vehicle behaves tends to reveal that our winter tires are no longer in good condition after they have been installed. Before installing your winter tires, we recommend that you measure the tread depth of your tires and confirm that they are at least 4.8 millimeters deep. You may not be able to make it through winter if your tires do not meet this standard.

We will be happy to assist you in finding the right winter tires for your vehicle if you determine that you need a new set of winter tires. It is important to note that there are many different types of winter tires with some performing better on snow and others performing better on ice. It is important to note that there are different types of tires depending on the type of vehicle you are driving and the location in which you are driving it. Chevrolet or GMC trucks do not require the same type of winter tires as Chevrolet Bolt, but if your truck will be used for towing or if your GMC AT4 SUV will be used for off-roading, you may need a different type of winter tire.

As a result, in order to find out which winter tires are right for your GM, you should consult with a tire expert who sells tires that are specifically designed to fit your vehicle, and they can explain the differences between the different types of tires. We guarantee that you will not be charged more money by going through our Tire Centre, but you will receive the highest level of quality.
