Are Summer Tires a Better Choice Than All-Season Tires?

Here at Autohaus BMW, we wanted to share some of the reasons the summer tires are a better choice as the weather warms. These reasons include better braking power, handling, cornering, and grip.

• Summer tires have a unique tread pattern that is made for warmer weather and will allow the tires to better grip the road surface.
• Fewer grooves on the summer tires mean they have more contact with warmer roads, reducing slippage. The tires grip the road better at high speeds.
• The summer tires are manufactured with certain compounds that provide flexibility so traction is improved.
• The tread patterns on the summer tires have been designed in a way that they evacuate water more quickly. When the tires more water faster, it is less likely the vehicle will hydroplane.

Bring your vehicle to Autohaus BMW so we can inspect your tires and rotate them while checking for any potential issues.
