All-season tires will help you capably handle your vehicle in nearly all traffic and road conditions. However, when temperatures in Troy plummet, you might need a more season-specific option. At Steve Schmitt Auto Credit, we make it easy for locals to choose between winter tires and all-season tires.
What Are All-Season Tires Good For?
All-season tires are perfect for negotiating wet, slick terrain and mild winter conditions. They also hold up well in the far hotter and often arid air of summer. For regions with temperate climates, they're an excellent choice for year-round use.
Winter Tires and How They Work
There are three types of winter tires to choose from: studded, studless, and studdable. Studded winter tires have tiny, metal studs that bite into slick coatings of winter ice to create traction. Studless winter tires have deep, aggressive treads and the ability to push slush, snow, and other freezing precipitation out of the way. Studdable tires feature both aggressive treads and tiny grips for holding metal studs. You can use studdable winter tires with or without their studs. They're perfect for drivers who regularly travel through areas where studded tires aren't legal.
