All-Season Tires
All-season tires seem like a good idea by name, and they are for some who live in an environment that gets the most out of them, but living in Calgary the threat of harsh conditions demands tires that are a bit more focused. All-season tires provide solid performance for a broad selection of conditions, but don’t perform well in either extreme. They’re made from harder rubber than summer tires, and provide good tread life and a quiet ride.
- Treads are designed for low rolling resistance
- Tread style improves fuel efficiency
- Sidewalls are strong yet fliexbile with mid-range aspect ratios that balance comfort with supreme handling
- Deep treads push rainwater away from the tire
- Longer tread life than performance tires
- Quieter ride than performance tires
- Provinces like Alberta demand more focused options like winter tires in the cold months to properly perform on icy and snowy roads
Winter Tires
Winter tires are built with specific rubber materials to hold up to the cold weather, as well with deep grooves and tread designs to provide superior traction on snow and ice. When temperatures consistently fall below 7℃ it’s time to put on your winter tires.
- Snow and slush gets pushed away form the tires thanks to its unidirectional/v-groove treads
- Big open tread blocks are cut with tiny sipes that expertly perform in deep snow and hold up over wet roads
- Because of the soft tread material it’s able to easily dig into snow and stick to ice and remain stable
- Even on cold pavement you’ll enjoy a comfortable ride due to the soft treads
- Vehicle stability control is improved, along with a smooth take-off when utilized with traction control
Performance/Summer Tires
Across both the car and crossover lineup there’s a multitude of Lexus options that prioritize the performance potential the brand so effortlessly combines with luxury. Get performance tires to match, built from soft rubber with tight treads that aim to put as much rubber on the road as possible. Their goal is to be low profile and help you succeed with tight turning and a stable drive on dry roads.
- Sporty style
- Firm ride
- Soft rubber easily grips the road, but invites faster wear
- Grooved tread design helps to displaces water to avoid hydroplaning
- Because of their low-profile it may heighten road noise
