Okanagan Car Care

The Stranaghan family at Okanagan Car Care have been part of the Kelowna Community for almost 60 years and remains the heart of the business. Over ther next year you will notice the name Integra Tire & Auto Centre become part of our business, and while we will adopt a new brand the same ownership and great service you have come to know at Okanagan Car Care will remain the same.

So why the Change?

Integra Tire may be a relatively new name in Western Canada but the people behind the Integra brand are much like us; they too have a long history in the tire and automotive business, striving to be better everyday, caring about their employees, families and the communities they do business in and have built their business on trust.

Integra means Integrity and we like that.

Being apart of Integra Tire we can offer you AeroPlan points

1 Aeroplan mile for every $1 spent on mechanical work on your car

1 Aeroplan for every $2 spent on the purchase tires

BIG Announcement Coming!!

A big announcement coming shortly. Stay Tuned!!!!!

Correct Tire Pressure= Better Fuel Economy $$$$$

Did you Know??

For every 1-psi drop in pressure, you can expect your gas mileage to lower by 0.4 percent.

Canadian drivers will likely burn an extra 643 million litres of fuel in 2008 because one or more of their tires are under-inflated, according to data from Natural Resources Canada, which is working with the Rubber Association of Canada (RAC), to educate motorists about proper tire care. That is enough squandered fuel to fill 257 Olympic size swimming pools.

According to an RAC survey, on any given day on Canada’s roadways nearly seven in 10 personal vehicles will have at least one tire that is over or under-inflated. Most disturbingly, 23% will have at least one tire seriously under-inflated by more than 20%.
“For Canadian drivers who care about the environment – not to mention fuel economy and safety – there is no easier way to contribute to cleaner air than measuring tire pressure,” says Glenn Maidment, president of the RAC. “Gaining the best possible tire-related fuel economy and performance is easy for motorists who take action. All it requires is some basic knowledge and five minutes each month to perform a few simple procedures to ensure your tires are properly inflated.”
