What do we replace winter tires with for summer ones? When is the tire change? Mark the 15th day of March on your calendar for every car enthusiast. That's when the legally prescribed date comes when we can 'reboot' our steel horse into summer tires.
Twice a year it happens that the main topic of conversation between car owners is when the exchange takes place tires. And March 15 is on Slovenian roads the day it can 'we change our shoes' their cars in summer tires, so the day when we change winter tires to annual ones.
Some people change tires at home, but most prefer to visit them vulcanization workshop respectively car repair shop. Changing winter tires for annual ones of course it is not mandatory, but it is highly recommended. Because they have summer and winter tires different composition, both perform better in the time of year for which they are intended. A winter tire will help you in the hot summer months wear out faster, and as a result you will also spend more fuel.
In the days around 15.3, expect around the service workshops crowded, but in order to avoid this, don't forget to take advantage of the opportunity booking an appointment online. Be careful! Based on many years of experience, there is a high probability that winter she hasn't said the last word yet and will continue to do so showed her teeth. In its Article 114, the Act on Road Traffic Safety states that winter conditions on a road or part of it are when, during snowfall, snow road grip or when the carriageway snowy, frozen (ice sheets) or icy (icicle). In this case, you will definitely need winter equipment, even if the date is well after March 15.
