To determine the correct tire size for your vehicle, the first step is to check the manufacturer’s recommended size. An easy way to find this information is by looking at the placard on the inside door jamb of your vehicle, where you'll find the recommended tire width, profile, and wheel size.

What Type of Tires Do I Need?

When purchasing tires, it’s crucial to choose the right ones based on your driving needs and the seasons. Tires generally fall into two categories: all-season and seasonal tires that need to be swapped depending on the time of year.

• All-Weather Tires: Best for mild winter conditions, these tires perform well in light snowfall or heavy rain. Their tread design pushes away rain and slush, providing stability, while the rubber compounds offer grip both above and below 7°C.

• All-Season Tires: Commonly found on new vehicles, all-season tires are designed for year-round use in areas with mild winter conditions. They have finer treads that are not as effective at pushing away snow and slush, and their rubber compounds perform best above 7°C.

• Summer Tires: These tires are optimized for traction in dry or wet conditions during the warmer months. They are not suitable for temperatures below 7°C or for winter driving.

• Winter Tires: Designed with softer rubber compounds, winter tires provide superior grip in temperatures below 7°C. They feature deeper grooves that channel slush and water, along with specially designed treads that excel in snowy and icy conditions.
