Snow Tires For Winter Driving Improve Traction And Safety On Roads: Tires West Jordan

Snow tires for winter driving improve your safety on the road in snow and ice conditions. Albert at Hillside Tire in West Jordan explains why winter snow tires on your car for the winter months help improve your road traction on snow and ice, as well as your safety in winter road conditions.

Snow tires are designed for one purpose -- safe driving in snow and ice road conditions. The tires' material is composed of rubber compounds that increase traction in cold climates with tread patterns that aggressively "bite" into snow packed roads. Conventional, all-season tires don't offer these same features, and are usually not optimized for use in cold, icy weather. These tires are designed primarily for dry conditions and wet-weather driving.

If you need to drive often on ice, and icy roads, you should install metal-studded tires, which are approved for seasonal use in Utah from November 1 through May 31.

Also, check your tire pressure often in cold weather. Tires lose about 1 p.s.i. each time the temperature drops 10 degrees.

7 Advantages Of Nitrogen Inflated Tires: Jay Leno Video


Nitrogen inflated tires use this dry, inert gas to inflate airplane tires, off-road truck tires, military vehicle tires, and race car tires for improved performance, more tire mileage and better fuel economy. More and more cars, light trucks, SUVs, Mini-vans and Crossover vehicles are using nitrogen inflated tires. Jay Leno explains in this video the nitrogen inflated tires.


Construction industry, mining industry, commercial trucking, NASCAR, the military, and Air Force One all have nitrogen inflated tires in their vehicles.
The 7 Advantages of Nitrogen Inflated Tires
  • Less inflation pressure loss
  • Reduced wheel corrosion
  • Prevents inner-liner rubber deterioration by oxidation
  • Tires run cooler
  • Increases tread life
  • Increases fuel mileage
  • Helps prevent uneven wear
The biggest advantage out of these 7 for you is - improved tire life.
Experts in the tire industry indicate that oxidative aging is one of the primary causes of decreased tire life. Oxidative aging is caused by the diffusion of oxygen from the pressurized air cavity of the tire to the outside atmosphere. Tests have shown that if tires are inflated with nitrogen, there is a significant reduction in tire failure.
 Why did race cars, military and off-road vehicles switch to Nitrogen?
 Air is about 1/5 Oxygen, and oxygen, especially at high pressures and temperatures, is a very reactive element.
When oxygen reacts with things, the process is called oxidation. When oxidation is extremely rapid, it's called "burning.
That's one reason nitrogen is used in off-highway and aircraft tires. These tires run so hot they can actually catch on fire. Nitrogen doesn't support combustion, so nitrogen-filled tires don't add fuel to the flames. And nitrogen helps prevent slower forms of oxidation also.

Nitrogen prevents other types of corrosion as well.
Oxygen and moisture corrodes aluminum and steel wheels. Oxygen also reacts with rubber, another type of "corrosion". When this corrosion starts, the small particles break off and form rust and dust, which can clog vavle cores, causing them to leak. The rough surfaces created from the corrosive action on the wheels leads to tire beads that don't seal properly, causing additional leaks .


Oxygen also ages the inner liner, the thin layer of rubber inside the tire whose function is to keep air away from the carcass. As the inner liner ages, more and more air molecules can pass through it, causing more pressure losses. These pressure losses in a truck tire can average 2 psi a month as a result of the air passing through the sidewalls. As it passes through the rubber, the oxygen can also corrode the steel cords, causing them to rust too.

How does Nitrogen help?
While both nitrogen and oxygen can permeate rubber, nitrogen does it much more slowly. It might take 6 months to lose 2 psi with nitrogen, compared to just a month with air. And nitrogen is far less reactive. It doesn't cause rust or corrosion on steel or aluminum, and it doesn't degrade rubber. Wheel surfaces stay smooth and clean, rubber remains supple and resilient.
  • Nitrogen also will not degrade the rubber seal in the valve core which extends valve core life and helps prevents core leaks.
  • Nitrogen reduces the water vapor in the compressed air of your tires. The air around us is full of water vapor. Compressing air concentrates the water in it.  When you compress air, it takes up much less volume, but the percentage of water by volume is greatly increased.
  • Water vapor in compressed air acts as a catalyst, accelerating rust and corrosion.  Water vapor also absorbs and holds heat. And when it changes from liquid to vapor, water expands tremendously in volume.
  • As a result, tires inflated with wet air tend to run hotter and fluctuate in pressure more. That's one of the reasons why racing tires, where fractions of a psi can radically change the handling characteristics, are inflated with dry nitrogen.
Will my tires have 100% Nitrogen after they are filled?
In reality, no. The Ingersoll-Rand Nitrogen Generator puts out 98% pure Nitrogen. On an uninflated tire, there is still some air present, so after you refill with nitrogen, you'll end up with about 95% nitrogen, which is enough to do the job. That can be increased slightly by filling up the tire with nitrogen without a valve core in the valve stem, and then letting the tire delate. Then install the valve core and refill to normal pressure with the nitrogen. (purging)

Nitrogen Inflated Tire Advantages for Commercial Fleet Vehicles: Reduced Operating Costs
  • Tires are one of the primary costs of operating a fleet of vehicles. Tire costs include procurement, maintenance and the cost of blowouts.
  • A typical truck tire with two retreads costs $480.00 and lasts approximately 270,000 miles.
  • Inflating tires with nitrogen will help to prevent premature casing failure and allow tires to be retread multiple times, with confidence and reliability.
  • Inflating tires with nitrogen to eliminate oxidation related aging can extend tire life by up to 25%.
  • Increasing tire life to 337,500 miles would save $120 per tire. 
  • A fleet with 50 trucks and 900 wheel positions would save over $100,000 in tire costs by inflating with nitrogen.
The primary cost of maintaining tires is the cost of labor to check tire pressures and top off tires with compressed air on a periodic basis.
  • Tires filled with nitrogen will not experience this diffusion and resulting loss of pressure.
  • Tires filled with nitrogen maintain pressure for a much longer periodof time than tires filled with air.
  • If a truck fleet conducts preventative maintenance on 5 trucks per day and presently spends 30 minutes per truck topping off tires, they could realize savings of $31,250 per year based on a labor rate of $50 per hour and 250 work days per year, by inflating tires with nitrogen.
