Are Snow Tires Good Off-road? For deep, loose snow, you would want to refer your customer to an “off-road” type tire with larger tread voids and deeper tread depths. Be advised (and advise your customers) that an off-road tire is an all-season tire, and will not perform as well as a winter tire on ice
Why Winter Tires? Winter tires have a soft rubber compound that remains flexible as temperatures drop to better conform to the road for more controlled handling. They also have unique tread patterns with wider grooves to enhance traction on snow and ice by providing channels to drain water and expel snow. Why are winter tires
How Tire Chains Work? Tire chains wrap around the tread of the tires and latch tightly to prevent them from slipping. Basically, they allow the tires to get a better grip on snow and ice covered roads, giving the vehicle more traction and better control. How fast can you drive with chains on your tires?
