As the weather changes with the seasons, factors, such as humidity, temperature, and environmental elements, all start to have an impact on your performance tires. This blog will explore how all-season tires are impacted by these climate shifts and what actions you should take to protect your best all-weather tires.

Seasonal impacts

Winter conditions

The most significant way winter conditions affect your performance tires is tire pressure. Cold air causes tire pressures to contract and drop. Once you start driving, the tires will absorb heat from the road, which rapidly expands the air again. This causes uneven wear, poor performance, loss of fuel efficiency, and, most importantly, unsafe driving conditions. Getting the best all-weather or winter tires that are built to manage these pressure shifts is necessary for tire safety. 

For wintertime, consider Sailun’s all-new WSTX tires. This studdable winter tire boasts a proprietary blended Silica-Reinforced Formula that provides reliable grip performance in low temperatures. WSTX tires are specifically formulated to remain flexible in harsh conditions, improving both safety and handling. If you’re looking for new performance tires to get through Canadian winter conditions, look no further than Sailun’s Ice Blazer family line. 

Spring conditions 

Nothing marks the end of wintertime quite like potholes. If you find yourself navigating bumpy roads or hitting a large pothole, check your alignment. Even if you have the best all-season tires available, uneven alignment can create a rough ride even on smooth road. Alignment issues can damage your all-season tires and create dangerous driving conditions. Add an annual tire check to your spring cleaning list this year.

Summer conditions

As the temperature rises, air pressure in your tires increases. This is the inverse of the issue we face during the wintertime. When your tires are exposed to severe heat and overinflate they’re  at risk of bursting. All-season tires should be checked periodically during the summer to avoid blowouts. Checking air pressure, ensuring tires have not become too thin, and proper inflation will help protect the integrity of your tires during those hot summer months. 

Fall conditions

Autumn is a great time to take care of any outstanding maintenance your vehicle and best all-weather tires may need. Long, dry summer days are coming to an end so it’s a good idea to check your lights and wiper blades to be prepared for all fall conditions. Check the balance, alignment, and rotation of your tires to ensure everything is working and safe for the coming winter.
