Experts point out that summer tires must be replaced due to low temperatures and wet roads, and we already have those weather conditions, especially at night and in the morning. As the reporters of “Novosti” were convinced, the owners of the car will still not go to the vulcanizer this time. Prices for new tires range from 3,500 to 65,000 dinars, and that depends on the size and quality. The service for mounting the tires and balancing the four wheels ranges from 2,000 to 5,000 dinars, while the replacement of the set with mounted tires is 1,200 to 2,000 dinars.

Marko Ivanović, head of a well-known car service, says it is common for drivers to wait for the first snow to fall to change their tires.
– Then there are huge crowds, and there are also those who drive on summer tires until December – Ivanović points out for our newspaper. – It is recommended to use winter tires as soon as the temperature rises seven degrees, because summer tires lose their properties in these conditions, they do not adhere well to the asphalt.
Ivanovic says the most wanted tires are 15 and 16 inches in diameter, 5,000 to 11,000 dinars.
– Those with a lower price range, such as “sava” and “riken”, are the most purchased, while “continental pireli” and “michelin” are more expensive – says our interlocutor. – It is important for drivers to ensure that the tires are of the same make, model and dimensions prescribed by the car manufacturer. This is indicated on the table, which is usually located on the inside of the tank door or lid.
WHEN IS PUNISHED
IF a traffic policeman stops a vehicle that gives us winter tires in the period in which they are mandatory, he can only collect the fine if there is snow, ice and ice on the road at that time – they say for “Novosti” in AMSS. – As of November 1, drivers must have chains in the trunk if they are out of town, regardless of weather conditions.
They warn car owners to check in time whether their tires are ready for winter and to replace them.
He points out that the recommendation is to avoid buying used tires, and advises those who cannot afford new ones not to buy more than two years and to pay attention to the depth of the pattern.
– Sometimes it can be a great pattern, having more than eight millimeters and the tire being five years old – explains Ivanović. – Although not used, it is rotten.
According to him, the demand for universal tires is small. He also points out that drivers often make mistakes, because they think the tire is marked with M + S for all seasons.
– It is a winter tire, and M + S means it is for snow and mud – Ivanović points out. – The all-season tire is marked for the entire season. They are more expensive tires, in the middle class the price per piece is around 16,000 dinars.
If car owners don’t have space and want to store their tires properly, they can store them in a tire hotel. For a set of four tires, this service is charged from 300 to 450 dinars per month, and seasonally from 3,000 to 4,200 dinars.
