CAA is reminding motorists that now is the time to swap out your winter tires.
It says with winter weather in the rearview mirror and temperatures reaching a consistent 7°Celsius, drivers should also begin their spring vehicle maintenance.
When making the switch from winter to all-season tires, CAA suggests one item to keep in mind that may not be on your list, is checking your tires for potential wheel separation.
Experts say that most wheel separation incidents happen in May, coinciding with the seasonal tire switch and are a result of loose wheel fasteners, the lug nuts or bolts that hold the wheel on the vehicle, so they should be re-tourqued after driving a short distance.
