Some insurance companies are offering discounts for using Winter Tires.
Stop N Go Automotive Centre offers these great services:
The Benefits of Winter Tires
The facts about winter tires and why all-season tires just won’t do.
Ever since the introduction of the all-season tire, Canadian drivers have slid and spun their tires through the coldest months of the year. Here’s the kicker: it doesn’t seem to matter whether there’s snow on the ground or not.
Unlike all-season tires, severe-condition winter tires (identified by mountain and snowflake symbols on their sides) have tread patterns and rubber that are tailored for colder conditions. And that helps them perform better than all-season tires once temperatures plummet, whether or not they have to dig through the white stuff.
In contrast, all-season tires can turn into four round black rocks when the cold hits. Even on dry pavement, at a balmy 5 degrees C, a severe snow-rated tire outperforms an all-season tire. And a study conducted by the Quebec Ministry of Transport showed that a proper winter tire can improve braking by up to 25 percent over an all-season radial and CAN IMPROVE COLLISION AVOIDANCE BY ABOUT 38 PERCENT!
Drivers should also not be tempted to skimp and buy only two tires. Do you want to slide off the road forward or backward? Four winter tires are necessary to maintain proper handling and balance.
Regardless of where you drive, you need to keep a close eye on the condition of your tires. Ensure that your tires still have deep treads to help with snow traction. And pay attention to their inflation. In winter, temperatures can drop rapidly. Tire pressure varies by approximately 1 p.s.i. (pounds per square inch) for each 5 degrees C rise or fall in air temperature.
In winter the temperature can easily slide from 5 degrees to -15 degrees overnight, dropping tire pressure as much as 4 p.s.i. In an already under-inflated tire, that could put you into the danger zone. Tires, therefore, should be checked monthly. If you’re not up to keeping track of the pressure of your tires when winter’s chill sets in, consider stopping by Stop N Go Automotive Centre.

Record Gas Prices Make it Perfect Time to “Be Car Care Aware.”
“Hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of gasoline is wasted every day by motorists, because simple and inexpensive vehicle maintenance is neglected,” says Car Care Canada’s Marc Brazeau. “Loose or missing gas caps, under-inflated tires, worn spark plugs and dirty air filters all contribute to poor fuel economy.”
Car Care Canada offers these fuel-saving tips:
Vehicle gas caps – In Canada, the provinces with emissions testing programs suggest that this is a common cause for failing an emissions test – yet it is simple and inexpensive to fix. According to US studies, about 17 percent of the vehicles on the roads have gas caps that are either damaged, loose or are missing altogether.
Other fuel-saving driving tips include:

Saving you a lot of money is what it’s all about
For most of us, money matters. A lot! So let’s explore the real costs of vehicle ownership. According to Canadian Black Book1, the average vehicle in Canada will loose about 70% of its value in the first five years. On average, that’s about $18,000 in depreciation; and it’s just gone – you can never get it back.
With Re-Ride, you can save most of this cost by extending the life of your vehicle, versus trading it in prematurely. From “Bumper to Bumper – Rubber to Roof”, we bring your vehicle back to Like-New condition, complete with warranty. Re-Ride gives you back the reliability, drivability and safety you and your family need – without taking a huge hit on depreciation all over again. It’s your money, so you can decide what you’d rather have. Depreciation, or money in the bank to do what you really want to do!
With Re-Ride, there are no more costly surprises.
Each Re-Ride begins with an in-depth, no obligation 150 point inspection. We take you through the report, and provide you with a Re-Ride program tailored specifically for you and what your vehicle needs. And with each Re-Ride comes our 36 month/60,000 kilometre Mechanical Protection Plan2 on all parts and labour-not just with the parts we replace during a Re-Ride, but protection on the entire vehicle, very similar to a new car warranty. We even include all the oil changes your vehicle requires for the next 60,000 kms!
No more costly surprises! Isn’t that a refreshing idea?
Book your appointment today and start planning what you can do with the money you’ll save!
