While AWD or 4WD enhances traction, it doesn't replace the need for winter tires. Winter tires are specifically designed to handle icy and snowy conditions, providing superior grip even with enhanced drivetrain systems. Combining AWD/4WD with winter tires offers the best possible traction and safety in winter driving conditions.


It's not recommended to use winter tires year-round. Winter tires have a softer rubber compound that wears out faster in warmer temperatures, and the specific tread patterns may not provide optimal performance on dry or wet roads. To maximize their effectiveness and lifespan, it's best to switch back to all-season or summer tires once winter conditions subside.


Studded winter tires can provide additional traction on icy roads, but they may not be necessary for all winter driving conditions. Studded tires are restricted or banned in some regions due to their impact on road surfaces. Non-studded winter tires often offer excellent performance in a wide range of winter conditions without the drawbacks associated with studs.

Remember to check local regulations and recommendations when choosing the right winter tires for your area.


It's highly recommended to replace all four tires on an AWD (All-Wheel Drive) vehicle at the same time. AWD systems distribute power to all four wheels to improve traction and handling. If one tire has significantly different tread depth or wear, it can affect the system's balance, potentially causing strain on the drivetrain components. Replacing all four tires simultaneously ensures uniform tread wear, optimal performance, and maintains the integrity of the AWD system.


While replacing two tires on the same axle is a better option than replacing just one, it's still not ideal for AWD vehicles. It's essential to maintain consistency across all four tires to ensure uniform wear and proper functioning of the AWD system. To maximize the safety and performance of your AWD vehicle, it's recommended to replace all four tires simultaneously.

One of the leading causes of tire failure is under-inflation. Tires that are under-inflated flex more in the sidewall. Excessive flexing causes them to heat up far beyond standard operating temperatures.


5 QUESTIONS TO ASK YOUR DEALERS

  • Are my current tires the best tires for my vehicle?
  • What are the best tires that match my driving habits and my price?
  • Can you give me a pricing tier of my tire type with three choices?
  • What is the mileage warranty (if any) of my new tires?
  • Is the tire manufacturer highly reputable?


Your tires give you the ability to grip the road, turn safely, and stop in a reasonable amount of time. 


5 Common Causes Of Tire Damage And How To Avoid Them 

  1. Misaligned Wheels.
  2. Incorrect Tire Pressure. ...
  3. Curbs. ...
  4. Potholes. ...
  5. Foreign Objects. ...


Look for These Trouble Signs

  • Cracking or cuts in the sidewalls.
  • Uneven tread wear. ...
  • Excessively worn tread. ...
  • Alternatively, you can use a quarter and penny as treadwear indicators...
  • Bulges or blisters. ...
  • Excessive vibration.


  • A common problem with wheel balancing often seen in the tire industry is mud, dirt and ice build up along the inner side of the wheel, However, sometimes the tire can deflate so much that your tires become unbalanced. Another common reason for tire imbalance is the loss of a wheel weight. This can happen when you're driving at high speeds and hit either a speed bump, a sidewalk curb, a deep pothole, or any type of object on the road. A tire filled with small stones in parts of the tread can also throw off the balance of a tire as well.. this is often seen with customers that drive dirt roads often.


No matter what vehicle you drive, finding the manufacturer-recommended tire size should be easy. The best place to start looking is the owner's manual. Don't worry if you can't locate the manual; you may also find a tire fit guide in these locations: The driver's side door jamb. Or, check the sidewall of your current tires. An Example would be 225/75R16


  • Your vehicle pulls to one side.
  • Uneven or rapid tire wear.
  • Your steering wheel is crooked when driving straight.
  • Squealing tires.
  • Shaking or vibrating steering wheel.
  • Your steering wheel feels loose or unresponsive.


What Does LT Mean on a Tire? An β€œLT” on your sidewall before that long string of numbers and letters denoting your tire size signifies the tire is a "Light Truck-metric" size; it was designed for use on a vehicle that carries heavy cargo loads or tows a large trailer.
