Tire Types

All-Season Tires: Designed for year-round use, providing a balance of performance in wet, dry, and light winter conditions. They feature symmetrical tread patterns for good traction and a comfortable ride.
Touring Tires: Also known as grand touring tires, these offer a comfortable ride with reliable all-season traction. They typically have higher speed ratings and are used on performance sedans and sports cars.
Performance Tires: Built for enhanced handling and grip, especially in wet and dry conditions. They have larger sizes and more lateral grooves, making them suitable for sports cars and luxury vehicles.
Summer Tires: Optimized for warm weather, providing excellent performance on both wet and dry roads. They are not suitable for winter conditions and are designed to maintain grip at temperatures above 45°F.
Winter Tires: Specifically designed for cold weather and snowy or icy conditions. They have deeper tread patterns and are made from rubber compounds that remain flexible in low temperatures.
All-Terrain Tires: Ideal for off-road driving, featuring aggressive tread patterns for better performance on dirt, sand, and gravel. They also provide a stable and smooth drive on highways.
Mud-Terrain Tires: A subtype of all-terrain tires with larger, more aggressive tread blocks. They excel in soft terrains like mud and sand but can be noisier and less comfortable on regular roads.
Highway Tires: Designed for trucks and SUVs that carry heavy loads at higher speeds. They have tread patterns that resist wear and tear over long distances and perform well on paved roads.
Temporary Tires: Also known as spare tires or donuts, these are used as a temporary replacement in case of a flat tire. They are not meant for long-term use and have limited speed and distance capabilities.

These tire types cater to different driving needs and conditions, helping you choose the right one based on your vehicle and driving habits. If you have any specific questions about these tires, feel free to ask!
