If you haven’t been thinking about new tires, now's a good time. Winter is coming with cold, snow, and ice. Check your tread depth and make sure your tires are wearing evenly. It may also be worth considering winter tires.
Special winter tires? Why bother? Your vehicle’s all-season tires are great for most uses, but winter – aka snow tires – offer better stability, control, and safety in cold, snowy, and icy weather. And let’s be serious, that’s what winter in our area is all about.
What Makes Winter Tires Better
They're built for cold, winter conditions. Winter tires:
- Are manufactured using a softer, more flexible rubber compound that provides better traction on cold roads, snow, and ice.
- Have deeper treads than all-season tires, which makes them grip better.
- Offer better control in cold weather, enabling you to steer better, brake more effectively, and reduce skids – on both cold, dry roads and snowy, icy ones.
For many drivers, the time has mostly passed to switch from regular tires to studded snow tires. Those tires performed well on snow and ice, but they were loud and tore up the pavement. Today’s winter tires are engineered to provide even better performance.
