All-season tires are one of the most popular choices among Winnipeg drivers for a reason. These tires combine the benefits of summer tires and winter tires to create a hybrid product that delivers in all kinds of weather. All-season tires are known for their stability, traction, and grip on both hot, dry surfaces, as well as wet, snowy, and even slushy surfaces. All-season tires perform best in temperatures of 7 degrees Celsius and above, however, some are 3 Peak Mountain Snowflake certified, which means they can be driven in colder temperatures and have been tested in heavy snow.
As one of the most popular types of tires across Canada, and in the world, you’ll find no shortage of all-season tires out there. All of the major tire manufacturers, from Bridgestone and Michelin to Toyo and Radar, all offer quality all-season tires. A few of our favourite models include the Radar Dimax 4 Season, the Firestone WeatherGrip, and the Toyo Tires Celsius CUV.
All-season tires and winter tires share some similarities, but ultimately, they are not the same. All-season tires have a finer tread that allows them to offer stable, comfortable driving in the summer, as well as a hard rubber compound so they can perform in a range of conditions. Winter tires, on the other hand, have an aggressive, blocky tread compound and are made of a soft rubber ensuring they stay flexible in cold temperatures. At the end of the day, all-season tires offer excellent performance in the spring, summer, and fall, but typically do not have the tread features necessary for driving in extreme winter weather. Meanwhile, winter tires perform best in freezing temperatures and cold weather and are known to offer excellent traction, even in heavy snow, ice, or slush.
All-season tires can be a solid choice for winter in Winnipeg, however, it’s important to consider how much driving you do and on what surfaces you’re driving. For example, if you frequently drive off-road or on roads that are not ploughed, then the traction offered by all-season tires may not be enough. As mentioned above, all-season tires perform optimally in temperatures of 7 degrees Celsius and above, and Winnipeg winters are typically much colder than that. That said, there are certain types of all-season tires, those which are 3 Peak Mountain Snowflake certified, that offer better performance in sub-zero temperatures and better traction on snow or ice. If you would prefer to leave the same tires on your car year-round in Winnipeg, then we recommend opting for all-season tires that have the 3 Peak Mountain Snowflake symbol. While Manitoba does not legally require vehicles to use winter tires in the cold months, it is encouraged.
