Winter Tires Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is the difference between Winter and Allseason Tires

    The rubber compound is by far the biggest factor in the level of traction you get from winter tires. In cold weather, regular all-season tread rubber, and the rubber used in high performance summer tires, hardens at a higher temperature than the rubber compound used in snow tires. Normal all-season tire rubber hardens as temperatures drop below 6 degrees Celsius. Tire rubber must be flexible to grip the road. Winter tires have rubber compound that maintain flexibility in the during winter.

    Tire tread is another major feature helps increase traction. A unique feature of winter tires is deeper tread depths and unique tread patterns. Deeper tread depths reduce snow buildup and provide better traction on the snow. Winter tire tread patterns are designed to channel snow and slush and expel water.

  • When is the best time to get Winter Tires on your vehicle??

    The best time is before the temperature drops below 7 C, or before the first snowfall. Many motorists install winter tires in October to avoid the rush on service departments after the first snowfall. The LK Auto encourages people to go that route and make it an annual routine.

  • Do I need winter tires if I have all wheel drive?

    It’s important to emphasize that driving features like 4-wheel drive (4WD), anti-lock brakes, and electronic stability control can be useful for accelerating and maneuvering, but they do almost nothing for stopping or slowing down. To get better traction on a snowy or icy road, there’s no substitute for winter tires.

  • Why do I need TPMS sensors?

    TPMS notifies you when your vehicle's tire pressure is low or is going flat. By helping you maintain proper tire pressure, TPMS can increase your safety on the road by improving your vehicle's handling, decreasing tire wear, reducing braking distance and bettering fuel economy.

  • How should I store my tires?

    In cold weather or in warm, tires should never be stored in the open air, even under a protective covering. Think cool, dry, moderately ventilated – and of course out of the sun. Your basement or another climate-controlled space is ideal.
