THERE ARE 4 TYPES OF TIRES
Some tires are created with a unique tread for specific weather conditions, while others are built to handle year-round conditions. Some excel in winter, some rain and some off-road. There are positives and negatives for each tire, so be sure you understand them.
Many new vehicles are fitted with all season tires when they come out of factory. Since they are built to provide a relatively quiet ride, good tread life and fuel economy, its no wonder why they are so popular. All season tires offer versatile performance and are designed to perform in a variety of conditions including wet roads and light winter driving. All season tires are designed to offer a combination of benefits from summer and winter tires. Its tread provides balanced dry and wet performance levels, as well as acceptable snow traction in regions with light winter weather. All season tires markings are M+S whci means "Mud" & "Snow".
Many people refer to winter tires as "snow" tires, but it's important to note that "snow" tires aren't just for when it's snowing outside. Winter tires are simply the best when it comes to maintaining traction, accelerating, stopping, and cornering in ice, snow, and slushy conditions.Severe cold weather conditions are defined to occur when ambient temperatures are consistently below freezing and/or there is substantial winter precipitation. Tread patterns of winter tires are very different than all season and summer tires. They feaure deeper tread depths with increased slots and sipes. Sipes are tiny slits in the tire that act as biting edges on ice. Together, these unique tread elements allow the tire to dig deep into snow, grip harder on ice, and ultimately provide more control.
Summer tires are ideal for high performance vehicles, and are built for speed and agility. Summer tires are designed for year round usage but should not be used during the winter season. They are designed to provide maximum road-holding grip. The tread compounds of summer tires are designed to remain more flexible, allowing for better traction and grip. Summer tires may have shallower tread depths that allow for more stability when pushed closer to their limits.
These are off-road tires designed to give you superior grip in mud, dirt and rocks. They can be driven on the road, but offer a louder ride noise than most other tires, along with less treadwear due to their unique tread design.
