With winter weather and snow already here, there are more than a few drivers from the greater Fargo area wondering whether winter snow tires are a good investment and, if so, which snow tires to get. If you live in a location that's hit with heavy snowfall often like ours, the answer is a definitive yes. And while some may tell you that you can always squeak by on all-season tires, we here at Kia of Fargo want to you that snow tires are never a poor investment.
Why do we say this? Snow tires are built in such a way to keep maximum grip on snowy, slushy, and/or icy streets and highways. They are a critical tool to keep your new Kia from sliding off the road when the weather forecast is rather nasty.
But remember, snow tires do not give you a license to drive recklessly. We would like to dispel one myth about snow tires right now: snow tires offer 100 percent protection from ice and snow. They certainly do not. Safe, responsible driving and good judgment are still musts on the road while driving your new Kia Optima or Sportage.
If you have any further questions about running snow tires on your new Kia, be sure to contact Kia of Fargo today. Our Kia parts and car service and repair departments will be happy to help.
