Winter Tires

~1min read

If you install winter tires on your vehicle, make sure they are radial tires of the same size and load range as the original tires. Install winter tires on all four wheels to maintain the handling balance of your vehicle in all weather conditions. Keep in mind that the traction of winter tires on dry roads may not be as high as your vehicle's original tires. Drive carefully, even when the roads are clear. Check with your tire dealer for the maximum speed recommendation.

WARNING! Winter Tire Size

Winter tires must be equivalent in size and type to the vehicle's standard tires. Otherwise, the safety and handling of your vehicle may be adversely affected.

Do not install studded tires without first checking local, state, and municipal regulations regarding any restrictions on their use.
