Winter tires provide the added stability and road-hugging performance you need to keep your vehicle on the road and your car’s occupants safe in rainy, icy and snowy weather. If you’re on the fence about whether you need this kind of tire on your car, here are a few benefits to consider:

 

Tire Treads are Designed for Winter Road Conditions

 

Your all-season tires have a modified tread and construction that suits most year-round road conditions but they’re not designed for maximum effectiveness during winter driving. Winter tires have a wider, deeper tread that is positioned to force water, slush and snow away from the road so your tires have enough traction.

 

Rubber is Formulated for Cold Temperatures

 

Cold weather can make your all-season or summer tires’ rubber more brittle, which can affect the integrity and responsiveness of your tire. The rubber used to make the tires you buy for winter driving is specially made to withstand low temperatures without losing the necessary flexibility for reliable performance.

 

Tire Width is Sized for Better Traction

 

When your winter wheels are slightly smaller than your summer tires, your car exerts a greater weight on each square inch. This helps keep your car in better contact with the road because the tires can push through the snow instead of rolling on top of it.
