SUMMER TIRES
SUMMER TIRES AT LES SCHWAB
Summer Tires

Summer tires are designed for precise handling on wet and dry summertime roads. They’re a great choice for regions where winter weather is nothing more than a downpour every now and then. But if it does get cold where you live, you can still use summer tires part of the year, then change out to winter or all-weather tires when temperatures drop below 44º F. The pros at Les Schwab can help you decide what’s right for you.

If you’re choosing between summer and all-season tires, summer tires are best on dry and wet pavement. All-season tires do well in most conditions, including some light snow and ice. Get all the details about summer vs. all-season tires.

SUMMER TIRES FAQS

    While run-flat tires are built to stay rigid when deflated, they still take damage the farther you drive after a puncture. With the reinforced sidewalls on run-flat tires, it’s possible to drive upwards of 50 miles at no more than 50 MPH when deflated. However, driving far can damage the tire beyond repair.


    Summer or performance tires are designed for warmer conditions. The rubber compound keeps you in control at higher temperatures.


    Summer tires are ideal for rainy conditions. They offer exceptional handling in wet conditions thanks to tread patterns that feature shallow, straighter grooves along with solid, continuous ribs to keep more rubber in contact with the road.


    Overall, summer tires should not affect fuel or range efficiency. However, a set of performance or summer tires designed for track racing and extreme grip can decrease your MPG or miles per charge.


    Summer or performance tires are not just for high-performance vehicles. These exceptional tires can be used on many passenger vehicles.


    The recommended temperature range for summer tires is anywhere from 44º F and hotter. Summer tires are designed to grip the road even when the temperatures soar into the triple digits and the road radiates with extreme heat.
