High-Tech Auto and Truck Center: Buying A New Set Of All-Season Tires
When water builds up between your tires and the roads in Chantilly your car is at risk of hydroplaning. A new set of all-season tires are designed to deliver good comfort and handling on the highway, as well as reliable traction in the rain. In the past, most all-season tires featured symmetrical tread patterns, however, there are many new all-season tires that are now featuring an asymmetrical tread pattern. An asymmetrical pattern may offer higher speed and load ratings for your car or truck on wet roads.
Each all-season tire is constructed with a series of internal steel belts, polyester cord and rubber compounds that are designed for traction and performance in wet or dry conditions. All-season tires are not the best option for tough winter conditions such as snow and ice. However, a new set of all-season tires offers drivers in Chantilly confident performance during nice and moderate weather conditions.
All-season tires offer deep grooves and blades to channel water away from the tire. Grooves widen to help displace water on the road as your tire wears. As tire tread blades become more shallow with wear they will open up to become wider grooves. A dryer tire provides more grip and minimizes the possibility of hydroplaning in the rain.
All-season tires offer a smooth, quiet ride by adding an extra layer of super-shock absorbent layer of rubber between the tread layer and steel belts. The extra rubber cushion insulates against road vibration and impacts.
Affording a new set of all-season tires has never been easier at High-Tech Auto and Truck Center. Ask us about offsetting the cost of a set of tires with manufacturer rebates. Most name-brand tire manufacturers offer rebates on all-season or touring tires. This helps keep the cost of a new set of tires low. Give us a call today at 703-968-6648 and ask us about the cost of a set of tires with a manufacturer rebate. One of our tire specialists will be happy to help.
Top name brand tires offer more than just rebates. Brands such as Bridgestone, Goodyear and Michelin feature all-season tires with the highest UTQG (Uniform Tire Quality Grading) rating. The rating system was developed by the US Department of Transportation, which helps consumers compare and rate tires on tread wear, traction, and temperature. The government mandates that tires have at least a 100 UTQG wear rating. Most sets of new all-season tires have a UTQG rating of 400, meaning that they will last four times longer than the government mandate.
However, please don't link tread wear grades with your projected tire mileage. Each new all-season tire also comes with a traction and temperature rating that represents the level of grip a tire has under normal road conditions. New tires have a grade of "A" for superior, "B" for good and "C" for average. Most name-brand all-season tires have a grade of "A".

What Our Customers Are Saying
Great team and awesome service. We worked through a headache with tires and they made it right even though it wasn’t their problem!!
Chantilly, VA
Taylor & the hard working crew at High Tech 4x4 are hands down the best garage i’ve used/found in the Northern Virginia area. I have brought them all types of cars with all types of issues, and some of them needing some extensive troubleshooting. These wonderful men and women have always come through with great trouble shooting at a very reasonable price. This is very hard and rare to find anywhere in this area. I’ve been an extremely loyal customer and client of theirs for over 10+ years. I won’t take my cars anywhere else. They always keep me updated, provide me with detailed estimates that are very reasonable. They stand behind their work, and they always keep all of five of my cars on the road. They will work on anything that I bring them without any complaint or hesitation. They just recently helped me on a JDM car that was only sold in Japan. The technicians were able to troubleshoot a couple electrical and mechanical issues easily and resolved these issues even without having any service repair manuals for these cars that were only sold in Japan. Very impressed with their quality of work, the way they approach the work and their pleasant attitudes. Every time i arrive with a problem Taylor & the entire crew at high tech find a solution. You guys make a car repair look easy and I appreciate you all. They are A++++ Thanks, your lifelong customer Mark

Very attentive to my concerns. The waiting area has coffee, cold drinks, and snacks. They even adjusted my headlights and pached a hole in the roof of the cab, all at no extra charge.
