Cold Weather
With black ice, slush, freezing rain and snow, driving in Canada can be unforgiving. Even if your roads look clear, winter tires still offer the best cold-weather performance when temperature drop between 7°C. Their soft rubber compounds allow for tread flexibility for a better grip on icy and snowy roads.
Surface Area
When it comes to your vehicle, performance is critical, but it's nothing without proper traction. Winter tires feature a combination of specialized tread design and rubber compounds that provide effective traction in cold, snowy and slippery conditions.
Take Control
Winter tires have a deeper and wider tread depth to expel snow faster as the wheel rotates. The softer rubber compounds of winter tires can improve braking distances up to 10% (or two vehicle lengths) compared to all-season tires, and can provide up to 50% more traction.
Confidence You Can See
Winter tires are marked with a peaked mountain with snowflake symbol moulded on the sidewall. According to the rubber association of Canada, if a tire is not marked with the Mountain Snowflake Symbol, it is not an approved winter tire.
