Summer tires are designed to deliver optimal performance as soon as temperatures rise above 7°C. Their more rigid compound and specialized tread ensure excellent grip on dry and wet roads, while improving braking, stability and driving precision during the summer season.
To fully benefit from their performance, it is recommended to install your summer tires as soon as milder temperatures return and to avoid using winter tires in summer, as they wear out more quickly. By choosing discount tires suited to your vehicle and your driving style, you optimize both your safety, comfort and durability on the road.
How do I know what tire size to choose for my vehicle?Check the sidewall of your current tires (ex: 205/55 R16) or look at the sticker inside the driver’s door. Our search tool allows you to quickly find discount tires perfectly suited to your manufacturer’s specifications. Summer tires or all-season tires: which one should I choose?The summer tire provides superior grip and braking on dry asphalt. The all-season tire is more versatile in changing temperatures, but it does not replace a winter tire in Canada. Your choice should depend on your annual mileage and your driving style. When should I replace my tires?Check the wear indicators located in the tread grooves. If the rubber reaches the same level as these markers, your tires are worn out and must be replaced to avoid hydroplaning risks. This is the ideal time to shop for discount tires. Is buying tires online really advantageous?Absolutely. Buying online gives you access to a much larger inventory and prices often more competitive than in-store. We deliver your tires directly to your home with fast turnaround times. You benefit from a wide selection on 4Tires.ca while saving money. It’s a simple, fast and highly competitive solution. Are more expensive tires really better?"premium" tire brands invest more in technology to offer better durability and shorter braking distances. However, many mid-range brands offer excellent value for money depending on your needs and budget. Are my old tires still good if the tread isn’t worn?Rubber eventually dries out and cracks over time, reducing grip even if tread remains. It is recommended to replace your tires after 6 to 10 years regardless of wear. Check the DOT code on the sidewall to determine the exact age of your tires. Why choose tires designed for electric vehicles?Electric vehicles are heavier and generate high torque at startup. Specialized tires feature reinforced sidewalls to support battery weight and compounds designed to reduce road noise. This is the ideal place to find discount tires that maximize your battery range. Why are load and speed ratings important?These codes (ex: 94V) indicate the maximum load and speed a tire can safely handle. You should never install a tire with a lower rating than what your vehicle manufacturer recommends. Respecting these specifications is essential for safe driving. Can I mix two different tire brands?On the same axle, tires must be identical to ensure stable and predictable handling. Mixing brands should only be considered temporarily, such as in an emergency. Ideally, install tires of the same brand, model and size on each axle. If replacing only two tires, always install the new ones on the rear to maximize vehicle stability. How should I store my tires?Store your tires in a cool, dry place away from light, such as a basement. If mounted on rims, you can stack or hang them while maintaining pressure. If not mounted, place them upright side by side and avoid stacking or placing weight on them to prevent deformation. |
