Safety is the number one reason to install winter tires on your Toyota vehicle.

A set of four matched winter tires can help you meet the challenges of driving through snow, ice, slush and subfreezing temperatures.

Winter tires offer more grip, controlled acceleration and stopping power under these conditions than all-season tires can offer, without compromising dry road handling and performance.

Winter tires decrease the risk of your brakes locking up. Your vehicle's stopping and cornering power is only as good as the tires on the vehicle, and your tires are all that is between the wheel and the road. With electronics that monitor grip and stability, a perceived loss of grip will activate the vehicle's controls that communicate with your winter tires, telling them how to compensate and correct trajectory.

Modern winter tires are not the same as the old, heavy, noisy, studded snow tires with hard, brittle treads. Winter tires offer more grip due to advancements in technology.

Innovations in rubber compound technologies have created a new generation of winter tires. These advanced winter compounds are designed and formulated to deliver more grip as the temperature goes down because the tire stays soft and pliable. Today's winter tires enhance traction without resorting to studs.

The advent of computer-aided design has resulted in the development of a variety of effective tread patterns. These new, block shapes pack more snow into the treads which build a stronger base for the tire to push against. Tread blocks give you the power to stop.
