All-seasons are better called no-seasons. If you use all-seasons in the snow, you get what you deserve.

All seasons are best called rain and cold tires. They are absolutely not “no seasons” and are appropriate in 3 or 4 seasons depending on where you live.

I’ve lived in upstate NY and driven FWD cars with all seasons plenty of times, even in deep accumulation. This was my first time with this car, which happens to have wider tire compared to my old cars, and those plus an off camber turn was the recipe for understeering into a ditch. I was driving at a significantly reduced speed and my car was completely fine after being pulled out.

“You get what you deserve” well, fuck you, too.

I've had to use chains a few times. They are a pain to put on, but they really work.

So I live in a snowy area and I drive on all seasons. I mean, I drive 3pms all seasons, but I drive all seasons.

My area is really good with plowing and salting on major roadways. Don’t get me wrong, if I moved a couple hours north I would strongly consider them. But it’s just not worth it where I am.

Well, those would be “all-weather” tires, not all-season.

[-] hddsx@lemmy.ca 2 points 5 months ago

Well, they are marketed as all seasons. There’s a limit to what kind of tire I’m willing to sport in the climate here

Or just be like me and have four sets of wheels and tires to be able to handle anything. Lol

I don't even have storage space for one full size spare.
