Two-Minute Tire Blog: Best Tires for Snowy, Rainy, and Icy Driving

Every winter is different in West Michigan, Northwest Indiana, and the Chicagoland area! Whether you’re dealing with rain, snow, or ice this winter, be prepared with the best winter or all-weather tires! 

 

Best Winter & All-Weather Tires

While winter tires and all-weather tires are not the same, they both perform well in specific conditions, depending on the climate of where you live. 

Looking for winter and all-weather recommendations? We got you covered!

 

Best Snow Tires

When to Put Winter Tires On Your Vehicle

See a tire you like? The time is now to switch your tires for winter weather! The general rule of thumb is that you should make the switch to winter or all-season tires when the temperature during your drives consistently reaches 45 degrees or lower. In regions like Michigan, Northwest Indiana, and into Illinois around the lakeshore, this usually falls around November.
