Tire Tip: Don't Deflate Tires for Better Traction

Tire pressure

Tire tip of the day: Some drivers follow the old wives' tale advice to reduce air pressure in tires during cold weather to increase traction.

The problem: While it MIGHT increase traction in some instances, it will cause undue tire wear when the weather warms.

Solution: Keep tire pressure at recommended levels.

Don't feel comfortable doing the above?
