At temperatures below 7℃, all-season tires progressively lose flexibility, leading to a decrease in traction, handling and vehicle control. Winter tires are very much different.

The special, soft rubber-compound in winter tires remains supple through temperature decreases. Winter tires also have more sipes — the small cuts in the tread block — than all-seasons. This means that winter sets can cut through snow, ice, slush and surface water. This increases handling control and safety on the road during colder weather in the autumn and winter. In fact, the braking distance of a winter tire compared to an all-season tire, depending on speed and road conditions, can be up to two vehicle lengths shorter.
