Why should you buy your winter tires now?
Talking about winter tires a week after the 3rd heat wave of summer seems a little incongruous, I agree. But, September is the best month of the year to buy winter tires. First, all winter tires have arrived in store as of this writing, and warehouses have choices in all sizes. Second, there is no panic in the mechanical workshops. Even if you don't get your tires installed tomorrow morning, buy it and make an appointment somewhere in October. You will enjoy a mechanical workshop that has not yet been stormed by latecomers who waited for the first storm.

POPULAR SIZES WILL GO QUICKLY
We have talked about the auto shortage time and time again. The tire industry has also had a difficult year. First, there is container transport, which is a problem. There is a dire shortage of these containers and the quantity of tires required is difficult to obtain. Then there is the natural rubber production of Hevea which is threatened by a fungus that kills trees. According to experts, tire prices will increase by around 8% just because of these two factors. It will be difficult to restock once the inventories are received. You have to choose quickly if you want to get the right tires for your vehicle. Popular sizes will fly away quickly, and you wouldn't want to be priced with leftovers. Rare sizes are not available everywhere. These tires are produced in small quantities and sell like hot cakes - get your hands on them while you can!

NO PROBLEM TO INSTALL YOUR TIRES BEFORE THE FIRST SNOW
Many people fear tire wear too quickly and install winter tires only when it is cold or the first snowflakes fall. Please note that on December 1, it is mandatory in Quebec to have your winter tires. But, we know it often snows earlier and as soon as the temperature drops below 7 degrees Celsius, the winter tire does the best job, with or without snow. You should put on your winter tires by early November at the latest and you'll be prepared for anything.

ACT EARLY
Tire specialists all agree that the best choice is right now. The choice decreases at the end of September, becomes complicated in October and you will have the leftovers thereafter, if there is any remaining.
