All-Weather Tires

All-Weather Tires

All Weather tires are ideal for drivers in urban centres, and areas that see mild winter conditions: mild temperatures and light, occasional snow. These tires bear the mountain snowflake emblem, so they’ve passed snow traction tests for performance in severe conditions.

Unlike 3-season tires, all-weather tires stay soft and give grip at temperatures above and below 7 C, so they’ve become a popular year-round tire in cities like Toronto and Vancouver, where drivers need tires to get them through mountain passes and to ski hills on weekends.

Kal’s Tire Testing showed when it comes to hard-packed snow and ice, all-weather tires don’t perform as well as winter tires, but they definitely outperform 3-seasons in winter conditions.
