What are the different types of tires?

Thumb
Winter Tires

Passenger Tires

These tires are ideal for drivers wanting to maximize performance in challenging winter driving conditions. They feature soft and pliable tread compounds that trade some handling in dry and wet conditions to deliver exceptional snow and ice traction.

SUV/Truck Tires

Optimal tires for drivers wanting to maximize performance in challenging winter driving conditions. These tires feature soft and pliable tread compounds that trade some handling in dry and wet conditions to deliver exceptional snow and ice traction.

Thumb
Winter Performance Tires

Passenger Tires

These tires are ideal for drivers of sporty vehicles looking to maintain the handling and performance capabilities of their vehicles during the cold weather months. They aren't as well performing in deep snow as a conventional winter tire but offer significantly better dry and wet weather handling.

SUV/Truck Tires

Optimal tires for drivers of sporty SUVs looking to maintain the handling and performance capabilities of their vehicles during the cold weather months. These tires aren't as well performing in deep snow as a conventional winter tire but offer significantly better dry and wet weather handling.

LT Winter Tires

SUV/Truck Tires

LT tires are meant for heavy duty applications. The tires are specifically constructed to support more load and designed for higher inflation pressures. Higher pressure increases the tire’s load capacity. It is the air inside the tire that carries the load so an LT tire with a lower load rating in some cases may still carry more than their P-metric counterparts. Refer to the tire placard or owner’s manual to confirm whether LT tires are required for your vehicle.


How do you read your tire size?

Learn how to read your tire size

When you search for tires you typically match the width, aspect ratio and wheel diameter (195/65R15). Your tires have a series of letters and numbers that are used to tell you key size information. This diagram shows a tire that is 195mm wide, has an aspect ratio of 65 and a wheel diamter of 15 inches, a load index of 89 and a speed rating (H).
