All Season Tires VS Winter Snow Tires

If you live in Manitoba you may be asking yourself if in addition to your factory installed all season tires, should you purchase a set of Winter Snow tires?

I think we can all agree that Manitoba has some of the harshest and toughest winters in the country. We live and work in a climate that is not very hospitable anywhere from 3-6 months of the year. Winter snow tires are specifically designed to offer the best performance in moderate to severe winter conditions and to provide the most stable traction and control possible on ice, snow and during severe winter conditions. Winter tires shorten your stopping and starting distance, they improve your ability to navigate through snow and increase your control when turning and maneuvering.

Knowing that for a significant period of each year slick, icy roads are the norm, winter snow tires are not an over-the-top precaution, they are an essential safety measure that could even save your life.
