Winter Tire Changeover in Summerside

A winter tire changeover is a good time to check tread, sidewalls and tire pressure before colder-weather driving. PEI recommends installing four matching winter tires between November and April. Matching tires help keep handling predictable across all four wheels; ask the shop to inspect the set being removed as well as the winter set going on.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Common Questions

Yes. PEI recommends four matching winter tires between November and April. Using a matched set helps maintain balanced traction and handling; mixing winter and other tire types can make the vehicle less predictable.
PEI guidance allows studded tires from October 1 to May 31. A changeover can also include checking tread and sidewall condition, setting pressure and confirming the tires are mounted in the correct position.
