FAQs
Is it necessary to change winter tires?
Yes, it's vital to have winter tires during the winter months since they are the only point of contact with the road. Winter tires have a special rubber compound and are engineered to dissipate snow and slush from the tire tread to provide maximum traction on snowy roads.
What happens if you don't change your winter tires?
Without winter tires, you will be putting yourself and others at a higher risk of accidents. Also, driving without winter tires during the winter will increase the rate of wear on your all-season tires, resulting in you having to purchase tires more frequently.
What happens if you leave winter tires on all year?
Keeping your winter tires on all year is just as bad as driving with all-season tires during winter. Since winter tires have a softer tire compound, your winter set will start to wear out relatively quickly during hot summer days, leaving you with unsafe bald tires for the winter months. To avoid such mishaps, consider having two sets of wheels and tires to match the driving conditions you plan on driving through, giving you the maximum tire lifespan from both sets of tires.
