<a href="https://clients.webstager.com/skahaford.com/inventory/#/?&orderBy=5&asc=1&t=0&filter=[New%2C%2C%2C%2C%2C%2C%2C%2C%2C%2C%2C%2C%2C%2C%2C%2C%2C%2C%2C%2C%2C]"><img src="images/upload/November_2021/SER-2-2021-ford-explorer-winter-tires-penticton-bc.jpg"alt="A red 2021 Ford Explorer driving on a snowy ski hill"/></a>BC’s winter tire law requires winter tires or chains to be used on most routes in the province from October 1 to April 30. If your car or truck isn’t equipped with winter tires or your current set is due for a replacement, stop into our Service Department at Skaha Ford to discover our wide selection of top brands at competitive prices.

When choosing winter tires for your vehicle, they must be labelled with the Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake symbol and have the letters “M” and “S” to signify mud and snow. This will ensure that they comply with BC’s winter tire law.

When equipping your Ford with winter tires, it is also essential to install a complete set of four to maintain control and stability of the vehicle. Anything less than four winter tires compromises vehicle safety and the overall effectiveness of the rubber. You also want to avoid mixing tires with different sizes, treads or construction and immediately replace any worn tires.

Drive with peace of mind by equipping your Ford with a set of quality winter tires. To learn more, reach out to our Service Department for additional information and special promotions.

To get your Ford ready for the cooler months and difficult conditions, now is the time to book a service appointment at Skaha Ford.

Here are four things you should do to be prepared:

 
Install Winter Tires
Winter tires feature special rubber compounds that are designed to provide better grip and traction when the temperature drops below 7 degrees Celsius. The result is improved acceleration, handling and braking abilities on slick surfaces.

Check Your Tire Pressure 
Colder temperatures impact tire pressure, so it’s important to test the pressure with a tire gauge regularly to ensure the correct PSI. Low pressure impacts your fuel economy, but also your safety.

Replace Your Wiper Blades
You should change your wiper blades for new ones to ensure they can effectively clear ice and snow from your windshield. You want your wipers to be in top form for your safety and optimal visibility.

Change Your Oil
If your Ford is overdue for an oil change, book a service appointment before wintertime. Dirt and grime build up in old engine oil, which thickens in colder temperatures and impedes flow. This can harm your engine and impact performance.
