To the news portal lrytas.lt Marius from Kaunas, who says that in autumn and spring he always goes to his favorite car service in Vilnius: “I already know everyone in this car service well and I trust the masters, that’s why I change tires here and do other repair work . I leave my tires there right now. “
The Kaunas resident was outraged that he didn’t know how to collect those tires for him, and would have to go to another auto repair shop: Maybe unload by mail? ”.
The driver Saulius faced an even more serious problem: “I have declared my place of residence in Vilnius, but I keep my tires at my parents’ house in Jurbarkas. I would go this week or next and change tires. In the regions do it much cheaper than in the capital, where the prices are much higher.
I could bring the tires back to Vilnius, but it is not clear if I can do it. When the weather warms up to 18 degrees, you don’t want to drive or use winter tires, which were bought last fall, so there’s still hops. “
News portal lrytas.lt Remember that summer tires can be mounted on the wheels of a car from April 1. In the hot season, road conditions are easier, so car tires are no longer as demanding as winter tires. Furthermore, summer tires are not distinguished by any special markings.
Summer tires are made from a harder rubber compound, which makes them much more heat resistant, has better grip and can last longer (universal tires are less heat resistant and therefore wear out a lot faster than special summer tires), further reducing fuel consumption. .
