The high-performance winter tires we evaluated offer superior traction on ice. Designed for good performance on icy roads, they offer better roadholding and are better suited to freeway driving.

These tires can be effective in some heavy snow conditions, but will provide somewhat less grip. On the other hand, owners of all-wheel-drive (AWD) vehicles are less likely to notice the lack of bite in deep snow.

These winter tires meet Ministère des Transports du Québec requirements under Bill 42, since they are marked with the snowflake-and-mountain pictogram. They are available for most high-end vehicles on the market.
