What are winter tires?

• Much too often, winter tires are portrayed as “snow tires”. The truth is, winter tires are not only designed to perform in snowy conditions, but they are intended to provide optimal performance in cold weather temperatures as well. Therefore, even in the absence of snow on the road surface, your winter tires will continue to provide you with the performance and safety you expect, thanks to the unique compound mix capable of withstanding extreme temperatures.

• Winter tires are particularly effective during the fall and winter seasons under difficult environmental conditions (snow, ice and slush) and at low temperatures, below +7ºC (19.4ºF).

• As temperatures drop, standard (non-winter) compound characteristics show diminished elasticity resulting in a reduced contact area and therefore a decrease in overall grip.
