Why are there ☀️ and ❄️ tires?

217 views

So why is it that we change our car tires for winter and summer? Someone told me the winter tires have a sturdier profile so you don’t slide as easy in snow but why can’t we just leave them on during summer as well? Why different tires for different seasons?

why not wear your winter boots in the summer, or your tennis shoes in the snow?

there are all-weather tires that are much better than the previous all-season tires, but they aren’t optimized for summer or winter use. they’re usually fine for the first season of winter, but then due to wear, may not be sufficient for the second season of winter.

if you have a corvette, you probably don’t have winter tires for it. instead, you have a winter car.

if you’re driving your sports sedan year round, you likely will have a set of summer and winter tires.
