Questions our Members ask about CAA’s Mobile Tire

Say goodbye to wasting your precious free time waiting at the garage. Instead, CAA’s professional technicians will come to your home. So, you can unwind on your sofa while they swap your tires.  

Derick from Ottawa raves about CAA’s Mobile Tire Change: "My wife and I can't say enough about CAA's mobile tire change. The service was incredibly fast and convenient. We store our tires on shelves in our garage, and the person doing our tire change collected our tires from the garage, put them on, and put the tires he removed back up on the shelves. We recommended the service to friends and family, and they were very happy with the service as well." 

This year, the service is back and better than ever! We've expanded to more regions throughout Greater Ottawa, Sudbury, and Thunder Bay.

When should I swap my winter tires? 

The weekly forecast is a good indicator that it's time to switch tires. Do you remember the seven-for-seven rule of thumb? After seven consistent days at seven degrees Celsius, you should swap to summer or all-season tires.  

Why can't I keep driving with my winter tires? 

At CAA, safety is number one – and that includes the tires you drive on. Winter tires are not designed for warm weather and will wear faster.  

What is the advantage of using all-season or summer tires once the snow is gone? 

Switching to summer or all-season tires will give your vehicle better traction on snow-free roads, making it safer to drive.
