Vehicle tire in winter

Should I Get Winter Tires If I Live in Green Bay?

Right now, the Midwest, and Wisconsin especially, has been battling a brutal winter with record-breaking lows and plenty of snow and ice that has made driving difficult and dangerous. One way drivers can make driving safer is with winter tires. But many drivers wonder, are winter tires worth the money?

Many drivers think that their all-season tires work fine when it comes to winter, which is true for drivers who live in a temperate climate. But, as well know, Wisconsin is not a temperate climate! 

All-season tires, especially those that are worn, can be dangerous on winter roads. What winter tires bring to the table are superior tread patterns that are designed for better traction and grip on both snow and ice. When your vehicle comes to a stop on a slippery road, it’s entirely from the traction on your tires. You may have all-wheel drive, but it won’t help when it comes to stopping. And just a couple feet can be the difference between a safe stop and dangerous skid. 

If you’re thinking that it’s already too late in the season to invest in snow tires, remember that investing in your safety is always a good investment. Plus, let’s not forget the April blizzards of 2018! Winter can last a long time in Wisconsin!
