🏔️ Adventure Season is Almost Here — But First, Let's Talk Tires!
Spring in BC means epic road trips, mountain drives, and finally getting out to explore everything this beautiful province has to offer. But before you hit those highways, there's one important thing to take care of — your tire switchover!
Here's a friendly reminder from the team at Southgate Automotive and Radiator Service:
⏰ BC Winter Tire Deadlines:
• Most interior & northern highways → March 31
• Mountain passes & rural routes → April 30
• Lower Mainland, Fraser Valley & parts of Vancouver Island → generally no requirement, but safety always comes first!
If you're driving routes that require the 3-peaked mountain/snowflake ❄️ or M+S rated tires, now is the time to plan your swap. Appointment spots go FAST as spring approaches — so don't leave it to the last minute!
Let our friendly, experienced team handle your tire changeover and a full spring inspection while we're at it. Hit the road with confidence knowing your vehicle is in top shape for every adventure ahead. 🌿🚙
