The most important question that you ask when you buy tyres for your vehicle is how you use your vehicle. And when you want to buy snow tyres you have to be very specific, whether you drive on the highway or the roads are well maintained, whether you use it for commercial and finally if your vehicle is an all wheel drive.
Car Tyres that you should look for during winter are Performance snow tyres. They are designed for high way driving as well as to handle snow and ice at higher speeds. These tyres are with a v-pattern designed to expel snow to the side of the tyre via grooves. They work well at higher speeds as the rotation is more to throw the snow faster. The compounds of these tyres are usually soft making it sticky on the ice for traction. They are also heavily siped.
Aggressive block style snow tyres are noisy due to their aggressive design. They perform well on back roads and those which are not always maintained. They are best for commercial snow plows and for the country side where there are unpaved road. Though they are always studded, there is always a rear chance of sliding on ice.
How do winter tyres work?. The answer to this question lies in where you mostly drive your vehicle.
• If you drive mostly on the highway you should use a performance winter tyre or an in between tyre that has a designed.
• On well maintained roads, a good in between tyre should work just fine. This will also do for an all wheel drive.
• If you are commercial plowing or live on dirt roads or not well maintained roads, the aggressive block tyres are the best.
Whichever vehicle you drive, be careful of the tyres you use. Be much more careful when you are driving on icy roads, here precaution is better than cure.
