Auto expert Mikhail Kolodochkin listed the signs by which a car owner can determine when to buy new winter tires for a car.

The specialist added that during operation, the rubber tread wears out, which can lead to an accident. He explained that when the tread pattern is completely erased, the braking distance increases significantly, the car loses traction, and handling also deteriorates. In addition, worn-out rubber in the event of an accident can become an argument against the driver.
