BEST STUDDED WINTER TIRES

Very efficient on icy roads, studded tires provide better traction and shorten braking distances. In winter, you may have had crampons installed under your boots to get around on slippery ground after freezing rain, for example. There is then a way to walk without difficulty on a frozen sidewalk, as if there were no ice. With studded tires, it's exactly the same. Winter weather can be unpredictable but driving with the good tires help a lot to be sage. We offer a wide vatiety of studded winter tire.

Studded tires are noisier than non-studded winter tires, which could get annoying if you are driving long distances on highways that have been cleared of snow. Some parking lots as well as some condominiums prohibit vehicles fitted with studded tires. These tires are allowed on vehicles registered in Northern Ontario but are not allowed in Southern Ontario, unless you’re visiting from out-of-province or a resident of Northern Ontario. The easiest way to know a tire has been designed specifically for severe snow conditions is to look for the three-peak mountain snowflake symbol right on the tire.
