Why Switching Between Winter and Summer Tires Matters for Your Vehicle’s Health

In Manitoba, our weather extremes are no joke. From snow-packed roads in January to blazing pavement in July, your tires face it all. That’s why switching between winter and summer tires isn’t just a seasonal habit—it’s essential vehicle care.

Winter tires are engineered with softer rubber and deeper treads to grip icy roads and stay flexible in cold temperatures. Summer tires, on the other hand, offer superior traction and durability during warmer months. Leaving winter tires on during summer, or vice versa, can result in faster wear, reduced fuel efficiency, and even compromised safety.

At Sprinter Auto Repair, we offer full tire swap and inspection services, but now you can enjoy the same convenience through our Mobile Tire Services offered by Sprinter Towing. We come to you, wherever you are in Winnipeg or surrounding areas.

Make the smart choice this season—protect your investment and drive safely.
