Risks Of Using Winter Tires In Summer
  • It is unavoidable to buy winter tires if you come
    from a place that experiences freezing winters.
    Unless you do not plan on using your vehicle
    during the cold season, you must have winter
    tires to continue driving comfortably and safely
    on the road. All-season and summer tires are
    suitable for spring, summer, and fall but not
    perfect for winter. If you use these tires during
    the cold season, it is your life and the lives of
    the passengers that you carry in your vehicle
    that you would be putting at risk.

Risks Of Using Winter Tires In Summer
  • When you buy winter tires, you need to use them
    during the colder months of the year. Using these
    tires during the other seasons is not
    recommended. In some states, it is against the
    law to use studded winter tires, especially those
    that have studs, during the summer season. You
    may get arrested and get fined if you are found
    using winter tires in summer if your state does
    not allow it. It would be for your own to use the
    correct tires whenever winter or summer kicks in.
    It is better to be safe than sorry.

  • Since the winter tires are specifically designed
    to be used during the cold months, they are not
    good when it comes to dissipating heat. When you
    use them on hot summer roads, the risk of
    overinflating or blowing out will be much higher.
    They are made with a very flexible rubber
    compound, something that affects how your car
    feels and handles on the road. When you make
    sudden turns while driving your car on the road,
    there will be a loss of control if the surface
    that you are driving on is not covered in ice or
    snow.

  • The softer rubber compound that the winter tires
    are made of also cause the tread to change the
    shape more. This results in more rolling
    resistance that causes your vehicle to use more
    gas. Unless you have much money to waste, you
    will not go ahead to use these tires in winter
    knowing the strain that they will be putting on
    your finances. Their lifespan will also be
    reduced if you use them on hot summer roads as
    opposed to using them in winter conditions.
