How to Drive Safely: Essential Tips for Driving Safety

It's the tires that stop the car.

When it comes to safety, tires are one of the most important components of your vehicle.
Your brakes stop the wheels from turning, but it’s the grip of the tires that actually brings your car to a stop.

Let's take a closer look.
Here, rubber meets the road:

The only thing holding your car to the road is an area on the tires that’s the size of a hand.

And this is where it all happens:
braking, acceleration, traction, handling, steering, comfort.
Even the most powerful car won’t grip the road without the right tires.

You took time to choose your car.
Taking time to choose your tires is just as important.

Your safety does not just depend on the way you or others are driving.

It depends equally on your choice of tires.
For your peace of mind (and your family’s), take the time to choose well!

But how do I choose the right tire? To help you compare and choose, look at 4 different aspects:

Safety

Most tires perform well in everyday situations, but difficult conditions will reveal their differences. Choose tires that can perform well in the worst types of weather or roads you encounter. The difference can be huge. Not all tires are equal – choosing the right ones can keep you safe.

Value

Making a compromise now could mean spending more later. Why? Because tires that last longer and can help you save fuel allow you to save in the long run. Get more efficient tires now, replace them much later! (And forget about shopping for tires for a while.)

Enjoy the ride

Like a shoe, a tire needs to fit you perfectly.
1. Take any car
2. Try a different set of tires
You end up with an entirely different driving experience. So, do you like a comfortable drive or precision handling to take that corner like a pro? Make sure your tire reflects your style.

Sports Car?

A sprinter doesn't want to run in slippers. Neither does your car. A sport or luxury car won’t feel like one unless the tires can translate its power to the road.
