Top 10 Ways To Get Your Car Ready for Spring and Summer
Winter sweaters and boots have been packed away in favor of shorts and sandals. Has your vehicle benefited from the same maintenance you've performed on your closets? Warm weather means long weekend getaways and even longer vacation road trips, and taking the time to perform seasonal maintenance today can help avoid trouble later.
Here are 10 tips for spring and summer car care. In some cases, you'll be able to perform these procedures yourself. Others are best done by a mechanic as part of a tune-up. Some will help your vehicle look better. Most will help it perform more efficiently and get better gas mileage.
1. Get rid of road salt on the undercarriage. Road salt can damage your vehicle by eating away at its undercarriage. Use a garden hose with as much water pressure as your system can muster to loosen winter grime and salt. Or, if you have a movable lawn sprinkler that's low enough, set that under the vehicle to wash away what you can't reach.
2. Check the tires. Tire pressure changes about 1 pound per square inch for every 10 degrees Fahrenheit change in outside temperature, so it's important to check tire pressure after weather changes. Check your owner's manual for the recommended pressure for your tire, and never exceed that. Always check pressure when the tires are cold, since driving even a couple of miles to the gas station can provide a false reading. Higher pressure generally results in improved steering response and fuel economy, but a stiffer ride, and it wears out the tread in the center. Underinflation generally provides a smoother ride, but it causes tires to wear out at the sides. It also wastes gas because tires need more power to push the vehicle.

News: The Benefits of Correct Air Pressure

Experts agree that keeping the correct air pressure in your tires is as important as giving your engine a tune-up. In fact, the economic benefits may be even greater. With the right amount of air pressure, your tires wear longer, save fuel, enhance handling, and prevent accidents. Failure to maintain the correct air pressure can result in poor gas mileage, reduce tire life, affect vehicle handling, and cause vehicle overloading. If you consider these factors, then the need to routinely check your tire pressure is even clearer.  Check Air Pressure Routinely Because tires do so much without appearing to need attention, it's easy to forget about them. However, tires do lose pressure each day, through the process of permeation. In cool weather, a tire will typically lose one or two pounds of air per month. In warm weather, it's common for tires to lose air at an even higher rate. Tires are also often subjected to flexing and impacts that can diminish air pressure as well. So it's important to realize that refilling your tires is as important as refilling your gas tank. In fact, associating the need to refill your tires with the need for refilling your fuel supply can also be a useful reminder. Check the air pressure in your tires every other time you stop to fill up at the gas station. That interval will allow you to check your tire pressure consistently enough to maintain recommended air pressure. Another good time to check air pressure is when the tires are rotated. Many vehicles have different tire pressures on the front and rear axle, so remember to have this adjustment made. Also remember to have the pressure in your spare tire checked. The space-saver type spare requires a much higher air pressure level than other tires, and is virtually useless (due to overloading) at lower air pressure levels.

Your Tire Size
Knowing your tire size can help save time at the tire retailer. It also enables you to make an informed tire purchase. Your vehicle’s original equipment tire size can be found in your owners manual or on the tire placard located on the driver’s door jamb, glove compartment door, or inside the fuel hatch. You can also check your existing tire’s designation on the sidewall.

All tires wear out eventually and damage unfortunately happens. The important thing is to quickly determine if your tires are safe to drive on, in need of service, or need to be replaced. Here are some simple ways to tell if you need to buy new tires:
Your Tire Is Damaged
There is a good chance that your tire can be repaired if:
The tire has not been driven on when flat
The damage is only on the tread section of your tire
The puncture is less than 1/4 inch
Have an authorized tire dealer or mechanic remove the tire from the wheel and inspect the tire from the inside. This inspection is absolutely necessary because internal damage is not visible while the tire is mounted.
Important!!
The proper way to have a tire repaired is to patch the tire from the inside. If you are offered a plug repair--refuse! Plug repairs do not involve taking the tire off the wheel for a proper inspection. A plug is simply inserted into the punctured area. Plug repairs are not reliable and can cause the tire to blowout. Insist on a full inspection and patch repair on the inside of the tire.

There is more to a tire's value than its initial purchase price. To determine a true cost per mile, it's important to consider factors such as tire life and rolling resistance.
Rolling resistance accounts for up to 20% of a car's fuel consumption—and the figures are even higher for trucks. Although the Michelin green tire is generally more expensive to purchase, the corresponding fuel savings outweigh the initial additional investment. This is especially true with today's ever-increasing fuel prices.
Extending tire life has always been a Michelin priority. We doubled the average service life of a tire with the launch of the radial tire in 1946. And since the arrival of the first truck tires in 1900, Michelin has multiplied their service life by nearly 1,000 times. Every Michelin tire is designed to deliver lasting performance.

Crossover vehicles offer a level of versatility unlike any other vehicle and demand a tire unlike any other tire. The MICHELIN Latitude Tour tire was specifically designed with these vehicles in mind and to fit SUV's as well.
