When to Swap to Your Winter Tires

Did you feel that cold air this morning? Brr! It’s hard to believe, but winter is right around the corner. One of the biggest hurdles to the changing of seasons is knowing when to get your tires swapped over. Everyone takes bets as to when the first snow will fly, but you don’t want to be left hurrying when those first flakes begin to stick. Most tire shops are booking out 2-3 weeks, and that puts us into mid-October already.
