ALL WEATHER TIRES

ALL-WEATHER TIRES

The newest choice of tires at Central Tire Edmonton is the "All-Weather Tire",  a hybrid solution for drivers interested in one set of tires they can keep on their vehicle throughout Canada’s diverse seasons. In a lot of ways, it's the best of both worlds. You're getting strong performance in summer, spring and fall months, similar to the all-season, but you're also getting good performance in the winter season.

The All-Weather tire has the 3 peak mountain snowflake symbol which means they have passed Canada's snow traction tests for severe driving conditions.

ALL SEASON VS ALL WEATHER TIRES:

There are a few major differences between all-season and all-weather tires.

When it comes to performance:

  • All-season tires usually have shorter stopping distances in dry weather and may ride or handle better.
  • AWT's are usually superior on wet roads and have a clear edge in ice, slush and snow but compromise some ride comfort, tire noise and handling sharpness. Example: the Michelin CrossClimate 2 AWT.

When it comes to convenience:

  • AWT's don’t need to be switched out between seasons. No need to store winter or summer tires or wait at a shop to have them switched!
  • All-season tires should be switched out in colder months to a proper winter tire as they don’t provide quite as much traction in winter.

ARE ALL-WEATHER TIRES AS GOOD AS WINTER TIRES?

AWT's are essentially upgraded all-season tires. They offer increased winter condition performance in light conditions without the inconvenience of changing to new tires in cold seasons.

However, when it comes to performance in true winter conditions, you will still need a proper winter tire. Winter tires are currently still the best performing, most reliable and safest options in whiteout and severe weather. For the BEST winter traction we still recommend snow tires for Canadian winter driving conditions.

All-Weather tires blend the safety requirements and features that drivers demand in the winter with the handling capabilities and performance you expect in the summer. With one set of All-Weather tires, you get a consistent driving experience, all year long.
