When you walk into a Fox Lake tire shop you may notice that you have many options when choosing your tires. Even within the major categories of tires there are more sub-categories to sort through. So even though you may know what driving situation you find yourself driving in most, you may still have trouble choosing a tire. Here is a quick breakdown of the different kinds of tires so you know what to look for at your Fox Lake tire shop.
All Season Tires (Passenger) – All season tires are exactly what they sound like. They are made to be used all year round. They are build to be a balance between grip, performance, longevity, noise reduction, and wet weather safety. The rubber these tires are made of is harder than other tires in order to increase it tread life. These tires are often the original tires on new cars because how mutli-use they are.
There are a few varying performance levels for these tires. Ultra high takes away some traction for higher speed performance. High performance tires are great for sedans and sports coupes. And grand touring tires are good for longer riding.
Touring Tires (Passenger) – Touring tires are a combination of all season tires and performance tires. These tires can be used on most cars and minivans. While the look like performance tires, they have the handling, tread life, and smooth ride of all seasons.
The main difference found within the touring tires category are the varying stability and traction as well as the look of the tires. When shopping at a Woodstock tire store, just keep in mind your driving situation to help you choose a touring tire.
Performance Tires (Passenger) – These tires are designed for speed demons. The rubber of these tires is softer to increase traction and handling when speeding around corners. These tires also have wider treads than all season tires so they make better contact with the road.
Ultra High Performance Tires (Passenger) – These tires are rather self-explanatory. They have the best high speed traction and control of any tire. They also have a high speed rating of 150mph. They are made of a very soft rubber for the best grip on the road, though they give up traction for this grip.
Original Equipment Tires – These tires are the ones found on new cars. Car manufactures work with tire makers to produce the best possible tire for the car so when the new owners take it off the lot the ride is smooth. They also request the tire makers to put more markings on the tires to help the new owners buy new tires when the time comes. You wont find these at your Woodstock tire store.
Snow Tires – These tires are specially made for cold weather and snowy conditions. They are made of soft rubber so that they can grip the icy ground and they also heat up to melt the snow under it. They are made with more sipes than traditional tires so that they can move the snow out from under them so they can reach the road.
These are not tires you want to use year round. When the snow melts, make sure your switch your tires back to other tires meant for dry roads.
All Terrain Tires (Light Truck) – Many light trucks and SUVs use all terrain tires. They are made with stiff side walls in order to prevent punctures. They also have large block treads to give them a lot of traction on mud, sand, and dirt.
Mud Terrain Tires (Light Truck) – These tires are specially made for off roading. They have even larger block treads for driving through mud, dirt, and sand and they are also wider which prevents the tires from sinking into the terrain.

Historically 4x4 and SUV vehicles were used by farmers and agricultural personnel. Of late though, BMW X5s, Audi Q7s and Range Rovers have become as common as a normal medium sized family car. You may have noticed that there are much more female owners and drivers of 4x4s, whereas historically women would have shied away from such large cars.
With the increase of popularity of these large SUV type vehicles demand for a used Land Rover in Surrey has increased immensely. As well as standard models, third part companies have got involved in modifying and making SUVs unique to the owner. Afzal Kahn and his team at Project Kahn are heavily involved in modifying Land Rover models.
Bespoke and modified Land Rovers are not just limited to the popular Ranger Rover and Range Rover Sport; Afzal Kahn has recently released an “enhanced” Land Rover Discovery. Project Kahn have changed the front and rear arch spats, front and rear bumper unit, and added a twin mesh grille, side vents, L.E.D running lights. They have changed the ride height by adding lowered sports suspension and added an exhaust system. Tinted glass and innovative 22" RS-R wheels finish off the exterior.
Prior to the Discovery Project Kahn released the Silver Range Rover Autobiography. It has a full Project Kahn body kit consisting of; a new front and rear bumper, front bumper spoiler, front bumper billet rings, side skirts, rear bumper including rear diffuser, quad exhaust system and of course, RS wheels accommodating the original Land Rover centre caps.

Soaring demand for Forklift truck parts
The forklift truck is extremely important machinery which is of paramount importance in material handling operations. It is called so because the machine has forks which can be called as steel fingers are inserted under the load to lift in a very organized and a proper manner. The forklift parts are subjected to a great degree of wear and tear because of its extensive use and therefore they are always in demand.
Following are the forklift truck parts which are an absolute necessity to make it fully functional.
The Counterweight is sort of a heavy iron mass which is attached to the rear part of the machine. Next is the carriage which has four sizes of hook type carriage. They are rated according to the capacity of load lifting which is further determined by the fork size and the carriage pin size. The Overhead guard is of great importance as it acts as protective shield for the forklift operator. It is a metal roof which is supported by posts and prevents any falling objects from hurting the operator. The Cab is the area of the forklift truck in which consist of the seat for the forklift operator along with other components such as the levers, switches, control pedals etc.
The power source of the forklift truck consists of internal combustion engine which can be powered by CNG Gas, diesel fuel etc. On the other hand, the electric forklift trucks are run with the help of a battery. Talking about the mast it is a vertical assembly which raises and lowers the load and is driven hydraulically. One or more hydraulic cylinders may be used directly or chains from the cylinders can be used. The forklift cylinder head is connected to the barrel in several ways. The most common way of attaching them with the barrel is with the help of a simple lock or screwing them up. The other way is the flange connections which works best for the cylinder head as it is bolted and is welded to the pipe.
One can easily get forklift parts such as Cylinder Heads, 4y Engine, and Toyota 4y Engine at great prices from online suppliers. There are renowned international suppliers of forklift parts and accessories which sell these parts among various other forklift accessories at incredible prices. All you need to do is to locate them online and get in touch with them. You will get a better deal from them than that provided by the traditional suppliers

The sound of the S4
Every morning as I get in my car to leave for work, I see my neighbour from a few doors down pulling out in his new Audi S4. I always delay getting in to my car so that I can hear him pull off; the sound of the V6 Supercharged engine at 6:30am always puts a smile on my face. I’m a petrol head, there, I said it. I went with him to buy used Audi S4 in Oxford a couple of years ago.
During the summer months my neighbour and I often take our cars round the back and wash them and chill with a can of beer. We both love our Audis and have mutual respect for each other’s cars. I used to have an S4 but I recently traded that in for a S5 as my kids are now grown up and no longer need lifts from me!
The S4 uses a 3-litre TFSI V6 engine, producing 328bhp and 325lb of torque. It can do 0-62mph in 5.1 seconds, as is the norm now a day it is electronically limited to 155mph. My neighbour drove over to Germany last summer and while he was there he got his car de-restricted so that he could “stretch its legs” on the autobahn. My neighbour drove over to Germany last summer and while he was there he got his car de-restricted so that he could “stretch its legs” on the autobahn.
Although the S4 is all about power and performance it does have very impressive fuel consumption and CO2 figures. On a combined cycle it can return 29.1 MPG and emit 225g of CO2 per Kilometre. My neighbour has the S-Tronic gearbox which further improves fuel economy to 30.1 MPG and 219 grams of CO2 per Kilometre – not bad for a high performance saloon.

Pros And Cons In Buying A Used Car In “Cars For Sale"
The major benefit in buying used car is you save lot of money. Not all the people can afford to purchase a new car. And you save considerable amount on car insurance and other charges as well. Many are attracted to the scheme of buying used cars whenever they see the display notice of used cars for sale. Often we see in Sunday newspapers and magazines lot of sale is being done where you can buy even fresh cars which have not run 10,000 miles.
If you are well versed with the car and its make, model and running conditions then you can go ahead and make a deal. It has become a hobby for influential and rich persons to change their car frequently for sentimental reasons. Sometimes you can see brand new cars which have been bought just one year or two years back standing in the row for sale.
During the initial years you need not have to change the brakes or check the battery and the exhaust system of the car. The warranties for some branded cars may go up to 3 or 4 years depending on the model. Above all you need not spend for fresh insurance coverage since the owner had already taken one. You are more fortunate if the car has covered only less kilometers because some leading manufacturers give warranty up to 4 years or up to fifty thousand miles whichever is before. You have increased choices if you are read for used cars.
More vehicles are there with the dealers with lot of options in prices as well as accessories. Warranty can be transferred from the first owner to you with no added charges. So you have chance for improved reliability in buying used cars. You can select the right car with good model, great durability with availability of warranty since you can go for lot of choices.
It is even better to buy the used cars from known persons than going for ‘cars for sale’ options. The car will be definitely well handled by the first owner and you will also have added advantage of getting accessories also with the car you purchase. On the flip, the interest rates are higher for used cars than new cars, since it carries more risk. Another disadvantage is unless you are tech-savvy you cannot find out the condition of the car without using it. Sometimes even the car would have met with minor accident which is mostly not disclosed to the buyer.

The Things you didn't know about folding sack trucks
A folding sack truck is basically a sack truck that is foldable. This fold ability provides an extra bonus to the already useful sack truck. Folding sack trucks are used to transport large or bulky items without difficulty or injury while having the luxury of small space storing. Folding sack trucks are commonly used in industrial facilities and most types of transportation trades.
Two pneumatic wheels can be found at a folding sack trucks base that provides greater stability on uneven ground, with telescopic handles at its top. A small platform- commonly known as a toe plate- is also located at the very base and folds up to minimize storage space requirements. When foldable sack trucks are in their upright position their toe plate is laid flat against the ground so that goods can be placed on top of the sack trucks platform with ease. Once it's loaded, the folding sack trucks are tilted back in order to move goods by balancing on its two wheels.
You might be a bit confused by having heard alternate names in reference to the foldable sack trucks but they are often used interchangeably and the most common names are; dollies, two-wheel dollies, hand trucks, stack trucks, hand carts and bag barrows.
Foldable Sack trucks are a key piece of equipment for the workplace or home. So often we find tools and other equipment to be too heavy to carry freely, a foldable sack truck is perfect for those times. In commercial use, foldable sack trucks can help move heavy or awkward shaped goods with ease. These trucks can save time, injury and money from the lack of manually carrying such items.
Some places where you may have seen foldable sack trucks used would be as follows:
1. Furniture stores
2. Large warehouse wholesale clubs
3. Any form of transportation of goods - like beverages to bars and retail stores, etc.
4. Train stations and airports utilize foldable sack trucks for assisting customers with their luggage & other items.
5. Storage facilities
Lots of different materials are used to make foldable sack trucks. This includes polystyrene, tube steel, aluminum steel, and aluminum excursion. A powder-coated steel construction also can help improve the quality of the frame, making it less susceptible to wear and tear.
It's hard picture a moving and transport company without the use of foldable sack trucks; how would the movers get all the furniture into the buildings and houses?
Picture a huge warehouse without the use of foldable sack trucks; perhaps the goods could be pushed around on skateboards.
What about the Coca Cola man trying to make his deliveries without his foldable sack truck; would he use a wheelbarrow?
As you can see there are a number of reasons to own a foldable sack truck and once you own one, you won't be able to live without it.

How To Save $500 On Gap Auto Insurance
The average price for gap auto insurance sold by an auto dealership or finance company is $578.
Q. So why would anybody in their right mind pay $500 more they should?
A. They don’t know any better.
Imagine you’re in a car dealership and you’ve just purchased a brand new car. You’re sitting there with a self satisfied smile on your face that lets everybody in the showroom know you just brought the salesman to his knees with your finely honed negotiating skills.
Next you go see the finance person to arrange a loan. This is where you’re casually informed that if you wreck your beautiful new car during the next year or two you’re going to have fork over maybe five grand because the car will be worth that much less than what you still owe the bank.
Lucky for you the finance guy has a tailored made solution to the problem. For a measly $578 one time fee you can purchase a gap policy that protects you from a potential shortfall, up to $5,000, if you owe the bank more than the car is worth when that bus hits you.
Of course you’re going to say “sure, go ahead” because you’re afraid of losing your shirt and, by the way, did I tell you the premium could be rolled right into the loan?
On one hand, you’re relieved to know the value your asset is protected, but on the other hand you’re asking yourself why it had to cost so much.
Well, it doesn’t. But who knew that there was even such a thing as gap insurance much less how much it’s supposed to cost. The problem is not with you, but with the major insurance companies and their brokers.
The reason you don’t hear anything about gap from your insurance agent is that it isn’t exactly a big money maker. With an average gap endorsement costing around $35 a year, there isn’t a lot of profit incentive to buy 30 second spots on American Idol.
Besides the price, there’s another difference between the gap insurance sold by a car dealer and the policy rider sold by a name brand gap insurance provider. When you buy gap from a major insurer you can cancel the rider as soon as the loan balance and value of your car reach parity – usually within the first two years of ownership.
With dealership gap insurance, the coverage is spread out over 60 months and cannot be canceled for a refund – whether you need it or not.

Of course you’re going to say “sure, go ahead” because you’re afraid of losing your shirt and, by the way, did I tell you the premium could be rolled right into the loan?
On one hand, you’re relieved to know the value your asset is protected, but on the other hand you’re asking yourself why it had to cost so much.
Well, it doesn’t. But who knew that there was even such a thing as gap insurance much less how much it’s supposed to cost. The problem is not with you, but with the major insurance companies and their brokers.
The reason you don’t hear anything about gap from your insurance agent is that it isn’t exactly a big money maker. With an average gap endorsement costing around $35 a year, there isn’t a lot of profit incentive to buy 30 second spots on American Idol.
Besides the price, there’s another difference between the gap insurance sold by a car dealer and the policy rider sold by a name brand gap insurance provider. When you buy gap from a major insurer you can cancel the rider as soon as the loan balance and value of your car reach parity – usually within the first two years of ownership.
With dealership gap insurance, the coverage is spread out over 60 months and cannot be canceled for a refund – whether you need it or not.

Top five family hatchbacks
If you’re in the market for a new family hatchback below is a rundown on the top five as voted by a renowned online car buyer’s guide.
Top of the picks is the Volkswagen Golf hatchback which is described by the use of words like ‘refined’, ‘comfortable’ and ‘fun’. As most Volkswagen cars it’s reliable and well built and holds it value well, it comes with an array of safety kit as standard and both looks and feels good to drive. It’s only let down by its rather conservative appearance.
In at number two comes the Skoda Octavia which has more space than the VW Golf and offers great value for money. But the models on the lower end of the price scale also miss out on some equipment so expect to pay more for things like rear electrical windows and alloys.
The green Toyota Prius gets the third spot with its spacious cabin and big boot. It’s got excellent fuel economy and low emission which makes up for the rather disappointing interior.
Forth in the top five is the Hyundai i30 which is the cheapest of the top five cars and also comes with a great warranty package. It’s described as a solid car but a bit bland.
Last of the top five cars is the Mazda 3 which is described as funky and fun with good resale value.
So if you’re in the market for a new family hatchback, you probably won’t go wrong by checking out one of the above. If you’re after a new Volkswagen, Mitcham has a dealership which should be able to help.

Ferrari 458 Italia Manettino
The 458 Italia is equipped with a racing manettino switch leading toward more sporting set ups and giving the driver a wider selection of electronic controls parameters. The ICE setting saw in the F430 has been removed, while the CT setting has been added in order to deactivate the traction control and at the same time maintain the stability control. There are five different manettino positions and conditions: Low Grip, Sport, Race, CT and CTS. Low Grip setting provides maximum grip under all driving conditions, and it is particularly suited for low grip surfaces. The emphasis is on comfort and stability without compromising the handling. Sport is the best setting for day to day driving and guarantees great safety under good grip. Race is particularly suitable for track driving providing maximum performance and stability in optimal grip situations. CT helps the driver improving his driving skills in safety, by keeping active the stability control. It allows over-steer right to the edge of the car’s limits and guarantees enhanced driving pleasure and fun behind the wheel, particularly on the track. Under CTS setting, both stability and traction control systems are deactivated, giving the driver maximum freedom and control on the track. No electronic systems intervene on the vehicle stability with the exception of E-diff3 and ABS.
On the 458 Italia, the driver can decouple the suspension damping from the electronic configuration selected on the manettino. The suspension decoupling button offers improved “filtering” of uneven road surfaces in order to improve performance and handling on uneven broken surfaces, such as the ones at the Nürburgring race track.
The launch control button is instead designed to offer the best possible acceleration from standstill. It delivers the maximum possible torque to the ground and prevents wheel spin as the car accelerates away. Its activation is indicated in the instrument panel. To start using the Launch control, the manettino must be selected on race, CT or CTS setting. With the car still at standstill, the driver then needs to put the gearbox in manual, selects first gear, pushes the launch control, presses the accelerator pedal and then releases the brake pedal.
The stylistic interior choices developed by Ferrari Centro Stile reflect a functional, ergonomic cockpit design. The driver is set in the center of a streamlined and intuitive layout, which is very much in line with the marquee’s signature styling cues.
