Also known as snow tires, winter tires provide enhanced traction in some of the most severe winter weather conditions including ice, slush, and snow when the temperature drops below 7° Celsius. Other reasons you should consider winter tires include:

Design

Most winter tires feature specialized tread compounds and advanced tread designs that help provide superior traction.

Performance

Your vehicle’s starting, stopping and turning abilities ultimately come down to the amount of traction your tires can provide on snow-covered or icy road surfaces.

Security

Even if you have traction control or a four-wheel drive on your vehicle, those features can provide a false sense of security in winter conditions.

The Drive Clean program helps Ontarians make smart choices about the way we maintain and drive our vehicles. “Driving clean” through proper vehicle maintenance can:

• save on fuel consumption
• prolong your vehicle’s life
• help protect the air we breathe

Improvements in vehicle-emissions technologies continue to reduce harmful emissions from new vehicles. However, these vehicles can become heavy polluters too, unless they are properly maintained. And, many older vehicles that do not have the newest technologies will be on our roads for years to come.
