D & D Automotive and Diesel: Buying A New Set Of All-Season Tires
When water builds up between your tires and the roads in Omaha 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 Omaha 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 D & D Automotive and Diesel. 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 402-895-5805 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
Sprinter problems! This is the place to go. Why wait two months for the MB dealer when D&D will get ya sorted in days. Called em min cross country trip from Florida ton Idaho on a Tuesday and the had me sorted before brunch Wednesday. Dealer stated they could take a look in 6 weeks - a common issue dealerships. But not double D! They open super early, have professional technicians, are super friendly and a fraction of the cost of the dealership. Thanks D&D for keepin the wheels turning!

I highly recommend this small but mighty automotive shop. We have taken all of our family vehicles to D & D for several years now. They go way above and beyond. I had a question on my daughters 2014 Ford Focus transmission and Cody called several places to research my options for me, to see if it was worth fixing or not. Also, they never push other services that are not necessary. They truly are honest group of guys. Thanks again Cody!
