Nokian Tyres winter tires for SUVs
Driving an SUV in winter can be a tricky task, but with Nokian Tyres' winter tires for SUVs, you can face any weather and road conditions with confidence.
how do winter tires differ from summer and all-season tires for suvs?
Winter tires are designed to be used during the colder months of the year when there is snow, ice and slush on the road, and the temperature drops below 7 degrees. Meanwhile, summer tires perform at their best when driven during the warmer months of the year. All-season tires are built to handle a variety of conditions and can be used all year round, as long as they are allowed where you intend to drive.
Winter tires for SUVs have a deeper tread that helps to provide better traction on snowy and icy roads. The tread pattern is usually more complex, with sipes that provide superior grip on slippery surfaces. In certain areas where driving conditions are particularly tricky, you may use studded winter tires for your SUV. Just make sure that studded winter tires are allowed where you live.
The rubber compound of winter tires is designed to remain flexible at low temperatures, unlike summer tires, which can become hard and brittle. This flexibility helps to provide better grip and control, even on slippery surfaces. Therefore, the right choice of SUV tires in winter can notably improve safety on the road.
How to choose the right winter tires for SUVs?
Choosing the right winter tires for your SUV involves considering several factors to ensure you get the best performance and safety in winter driving conditions. Remember to also keep track of the condition of your current SUV tires and take good care of them to prolong their service life.
