According to the division of the twenty-four solar terms, the winter of 2019 officially begins on November 8th. Lidong means entering the cold season. In the north, in addition to eating dumplings in Lidong, “car lovers” will also put on suitable “winter boots” for their cars to protect them in winter and add peace of mind.
Why switch to winter tires?
What are winter tires? They are specially designed for winter driving. It has a special tire rubber formula and tread pattern, which can exert tire performance in complex winter climates such as low temperature ice and snow.
Most areas in my country are located north of the Tropic of Cancer. Basically, the temperature in winter will reach below zero, and the roads are often covered with snow and ice. At the same time, in low temperature weather, the rubber of the tire will harden due to the cold, resulting in a significant drop in grip, and the braking performance of the tire will therefore be reduced, and driving safety cannot be guaranteed.
So, when is the right time to replace winter tires?
When winter comes, snow and ice are prone to occur at low temperatures. In order to ensure driving safety, it is necessary to replace professional and reliable winter tires.
The rubber formula of winter tires is much softer than that of summer tires, which can maintain good elasticity in low temperature environments, and the patterns are denser and finer, which can greatly improve the performance of vehicles when driving on icy and snowy roads, effectively break the water film and enhance grip. , shorten the braking distance and ensure driving safety in winter. This is different from summer tires. The colder and harder the summer tires, the weaker the grip and the easier the tires will slip. Therefore, it is best to replace your car with winter tires in the cold winter.
Bridgestone Icebreaker series winter tires adopt breakthrough foam rubber technology. The rubber of this tire contains a large number of small air cells, which can play a cushioning effect, keep the rubber soft even at low temperatures, and effectively inhibit the decline in ice road performance in the later period of use, so that the tire can continue to exert excellent ice and snow performance .
At the same time, the surface of the air chamber contained in the foam rubber is coated with a hydrophilic material. After the tire is worn, the air chamber can cut the water film and absorb water, so that the tire can be closely attached to the ice surface, ensuring the safety of the tire when driving on the ice road. Excellent grip and provides more powerful driving force for the tires.
Today, foam rubber technology has undergone continuous development and evolution, and Bridgestone BLIZZAK winter tire products are deeply recognized and loved by consumers. Since its launch in 1988, the Bingruike series of winter tires has sold more than 200 million tires worldwide in more than 30 years, which shows how much consumers love it. To use an image metaphor, if these tires are connected enough to build a “tire bridge” from the earth to the moon, it will become the well-deserved king of ice and snow tires!
The cold winter has come, and you are full of dumplings and motivated, why not start working now and put on a pair of high-quality “Bridgestone winter boots” for your car. In the cold season, let Bridgestone You escort, to ensure safe travel!
