Having the right tires to sell to drivers is key but getting the right tires can be tricky. So, how do you find reliable tire distributors?
Tire Distribution
Assuming something doesn’t go horribly wrong, the tires are the only part of a vehicle that touches the road. This means they go through more wear and tear than other auto parts. They experience a great deal of friction. Rotating over hot or cold asphalt at 100 kilometers an hour has a way of wearing down tires.
Friction isn’t the only problem tires face. They must also carry the entire mass of the vehicle. That’s a lot of weight. And then there are hazards on the road such as glass, rocks, potholes, and construction debris that can all puncture and tear tires.
The upshot of all this: tires wear down. Drivers need to replace tires more than any other automotive component. That means, if you run an auto shop, you can expect a higher demand for tires than any other part. That’s not even mentioning seasonal tire changes.
Seasonal Tires
Another reason why tires need so many services has to do with the weather. In Western Canada, winters can be quite cold. This is a hazard for some tires. But it doesn’t have to be a blizzard and negative 20 degrees to hinder tire performance.
Temperatures as mild as seven degrees Celsius can impede the performance of summer and all-season tires. Canadian drivers are urged to switch to winter or all-weather tires every year before the cold weather hits. That means many Canadian drivers need their tires changed at least twice a year.
There is so much demand for tire services that it makes providing those services key for automotive businesses. But having tire experts who can install those tires is only one requirement to satisfy your customers. You also need a wide selection of tires.
Tire Brands
In addition to having winter tires, all-weather tires, all-season tires, and summer tires for sale, it is important to have a large selection of tire brands available. A reliable tire distributor can supply you with a wide variety of brands so that no matter what kind of tire your customer wants, you have a brand to offer them.
