Ian Sebastian Video Blog The problem with buying used winter tires is that after 3or 4 years, the rubber starts to oxidize and hardens. Then your formerly safe tires are not much better than using all season or summer tires. After 7 years of use this is almost guaranteed. Don't be fooled into thinking you will be safe. There are no studies or videos made covering this critical point.

Once you drive a car with winter tires you'll never drive without them again.

1:36 Technically, that's an all weather tire, not all season. Specifically, it's the Firestone Weathergrip tires. They are engineered to work through all 4 seasons and do have the 3 peak mountain snowflake certification. I personally have a set of Nokian WR-G4s and will always recommend all weathers over all seasons as they are a much better tire when snow falls and you don't have to remove them every spring like you would a dedicated snow tire.

No winter tires, no insurance claim, let’s see how many ppl will change to winter tires then

honestly, all-seasons are good enough... FOR non-freezing times. all seasons are practically useless in snow conditions and near outright dangerous. But honestly for the average person, especially in Vancouver, not everyone has a garage to put their spare winter tires. Driving in general has a lot of costs. When you cheap out on tires, what may cost you is your life.

Thank God I'm not dumb like other Vancouverites. I bought good winter tires. It's mandatory on BC mountain highways. People were driving 30 km an hour on highway 1 and sliding. I was doing 60 past them and not sliding. Winter tires are smart. Be smart

The tire you used as an all season tire is the Firestone WeatherGrip it is one of the few tires in the Firestone Bridgestone line with both an M+S and a 3 peak certification. It also means you can use it all year long even in deep snow (about 6 inches). It's misleading and incorrect.

I got myself a set of Nokian all weather tires. Safer for me, safer for my precious car. On coming traffic on a narrow road? No problem, drove myself to the side into 6 inch deep snow, let them pass, then drove myself on out... all the while, a bunch of people are stopped to help dig out a police cruiser on the other side of the road.

Winter tires are a must imo if you live somewhere that's cold and snows. They shorten brake distance as well in the freezing cold. Not just in snow.

Speed is also another important factor. The speed limit is maximum speed limit but it's always minimum in most of people.

Driving in snow with summer tires is on par with driving drunk imo, Just becuase you havent crashed yet doesent make it a good idea. The price is not that high when you consider that you a wearing on two sets, if you use your regular tires year round you will have to replace them sooner.

I don't know that we need CBC Vancouver to tell the rest of Canada how to drive in winter. Vancouver winters are usually in the -5C to 5C range with occasional snow. They do not have the prolonged snow and low -20C temperatures experienced in the rest of Canada.

Would you rather spend for winter tires once or car repair damage or a coffin... Here in the far East Coast Province its by law to have winter tire from Dec1 to 15March

Normally Canadians are used to dealing with snow but not British Columbians especially people living in Greater Vancouver. This is the point of this video. A lot of people here don't know how to drive in snow, or are not willing to buy snow tires. We have lots of rain from later fall to spring but other than that, overall the climate here is not so bad. We have dry and cooler summer. I noticed my car's AC was not working but did without it last sumner. There were some hot days, it's much better with an AC but still we can survive without it.

They are like lower-quality winter tires that you can leave on your vehicle all year long. They are almost as good as winter tires in the snow, and way better than all-season tires in the snow. And during the summer they are almost as good as the best all-season tires during that time also. They really are all anyone needs in Canada.

“I can’t stop” Isn’t even trying to modulate braking.... it’s not just about winter tires, it’s about knowing how to drive properly.

Colin it’s more so the hassle, transporting them, mounting them, and finding a place to store the other set

When it snows, an all-season tire will lose 80% of the grip that they once had. A winter tire will increase this to only a 70% loss of the grip that you once had in dry weather with all-season tires. Having 30% of the grip that you used to have is 50% better than only having 20% of the grip that you used to have. It is still not much, but much better than almost nothing.

I don't use winter tires. I just drive slow and safe and never in conditions where I'll encounter snow. If I need to, I can always take a taxi. Taking a taxi once or twice a year is still cheaper than getting your tires swapped. Not to mention the cost of getting the tires in the first place.

If I'm under 10mph, I can grind to a halt just like dry pavement by slamming on the brake only.

The main difference: All-weather tires are rated with the "three-peak mountain snowflake" symbol. All-season tires are rated with the "mud and snow" (M+S) symbol. Therefore, all-weather tires will perform better than all-season tires in the winter. However, all-weather tires will not perform better than winter tires in the winter, due to the characteristics of the tires.

It amazes me how winter tires are not required by law in southern Ontario. Especially even BC requires them on highways. Part of being a competent driver is to ensure your cars are in suitable condition to drive. If you can afford winter tires, you can’t afford driving in winter

@StarAZ

@Cool Story Bro BC, with its mild winter, requires winter tires on highways. Therefore, Ontario, with its more severe winter, should also require winter tires by law. Having winter tires reduces your braking distance compared against A/S tires, under 7 degrees Celsius. Being able to accelerate and decelerate more effectively reduces your chances of being involved in a collision. An individual driver not having a collision doesn't prove anything.

As a Norwegian I'm surprised that winter tyres is seen as "optional" by people in Canada... Here we swap tyres each season as a matter of course, like it was clothing. The only debate is whether or not it should be studded winter tyres.

Because of the normally 'Mild' weather that South-Western B.C. gets, it's sensible that most don't think they need winter tires. Okay then, just get these new 'All-Weather' tires instead when your all-season tires wear out and that will be good enough for most people, as they are halfway between all-season and winter tires in terms of traction, yet you can use them in the hot summers with no problems.

ESC /ESP is one of the the best things put in modern vehicles coupled with good tyres and abit of skill u set for the winter my friend

My advice to everyone is this: Buy 'ALL-WEATHER Tires' (they are softer than all-season tires). The new compound designs of the new 'All-Weather' tires allow the soft rubber to withstand the heat of summer without wearing away quickly, giving you almost as much tread-life as a regular all-season tire even though you keep using them all year long. But when the snow comes, they give 80% of the traction advantages of the best winter tires, and even better traction than the lower-quality winter tires out there. So forget having to switch over from all-season to winter tires and back again each year, just go and get a set of all-weather tires on your vehicle and forget about having to do that tire change each year. Keep your old winter tires or all-season tires as 'spare-tires' for when you get a flat.

I was suggest a campaign for annual reminders or discounts to take care of these issues before winter. I believe most people are not concerned with what type of tires are on their vehicles. Unfortunately, KZread videos and complaining are not enough.

Oh and don't forget the guy you read ended!! Or the diffrence in your insurance rate jumping. Best items to have to in winter driving : Ice Tires I find Blizzak tires are my top choice. I have them slightly under the full psi they should be for more tire to road. 4x4/AWD having power to all tires go's with having 4 tires to stop it helps with controlable movement Worst reason/areas of the road that cause the most crashes : Hills,Turns, Speed (yes even the speed limit) Bridges ----Bridges normally have a openning underneath where cold air rushes under making whatever is on the bridge cool much faster Leaving black ice So you may have dry clear roads where the slush and water has run onto the bridge where it freezes Watch some youtube videos on winter crashes Take note of where the the crash took place many of them are with cars and truck not on a level straight road combied with bad tires. If a car with the best tires and 4x4 set up can stop from say 80kms/hr 500ft And you dont have any of those items You should not be on a road that has a 80km speed limit Because you should only be doing 50km at best The other idea is not to drive that day ..whats the cost of Snow tires now? Miss a day of work? Crash the car and miss the same day of work And pay in one form or another?

For the person that couldn’t stop get off the brakes and you will be able to steer... 0:01

"I dont have money for another set of tires, they cost to much" They may cost more up front but you dont spend much more year over year. When you're driving on the summers you arnt putting wear on the winters, and vice versa. You end up paying the same in the end AND you're a safer, more controlled driver.

Dont wanna pay to get them swapped every year. Get a cheap set of rims from a wrecker and just after 2 years you've saved money. Also say goodbye to the stress of making an appointment at the tire shop every winter. It's easy for a mechanic to put 4 tires and rims on, or just do it yourself at home.

Summer tire, all season, all weather, winter

I don’t believe winter tires should be mandatory! But I do believe if you were involved in a car accident without winter tires you were held more liable! You should get a ticket if involved in an accident form properly ill-equipped vehicle! Not everybody has to drive when it’s icy out. If you have a four-wheel-drive that is mechanically.(Chain driven transfer case) They do stop faster! It’s the hydraulic driven four-wheel-drive! It is bald Tires it caused a problem! On ice winter Bald winter tires aren’t better than new all seasons!

For best stopping distances you need to disable the Antiloc Brake System (ABS). It says so right in your car's manual and includes instructions on how to do it. It's only really useful at somewhat higher speeds for those who don't have the skills to properly manage a skid, in stop and go city traffic it's basically useless and puts you at greater risk of rear ending someone.

That is something that I do not want to try.

Winter tires will not compensate for people’s lack of driving skill, I have driven snow only on All-Seasons and refuse to change to dedicated winters. If there is enough snow that you can’t drive properly, then stay home. Learn to threshold brake, side braking and using the car’s oversteer characteristic to your advantage. Also lastly, keep your speed LOW!! just because you have snow tires doesn’t mean you can still go 100 in a 70 and expect to get away with it like youd in the dry.

Lol, "Not worth the investment." Do people think if you have 2 sets of tires that they only last as long as a single set? Yes, there is upfront cost but total cost of ownership is nearly the same and you are safer. If you are going to run one set all year do everyone a favour and get some winter rated tires (all weather rather than all season). For your average grocery getter it makes no difference in the summer and is markedly better in the winter (though still not as good as dedicated winter tires).

dubbreak In Ontario, winter tires are not mandatory. The road maintenance policy is to keep roads plowed and salted, with a resulting wet surface. Winter tires are actually worse than summer or all season tires in braking in these conditions. The alleged better low temperature flexibility of a winter formulated rubber is moot in these conditions.

best tires to get are all weather tires. They are different tha all seasons if yall didnt know.

I just wished that CBC News, would acknowledge that the tires you buy are NOT brand New. So they might not be up to "specs". There is a code on the Tire that will tell you the year it was made not only that, the month and the day. So you might buy "Brand New Tires" but they might 8 to 15 years old. Go figure about this bad news coverage! As a side note, with the B.C. Gov't. Will it cover the costs (destroying all out of date tires, and where do they go and what does the Tire Manufacture get?) of these useless tires when and IF they deem a tire can only be held for 1 year? Wanna bet that BF Goodrich/Good Year and any other tire manufacturer will comply? The answer is NO! Let's talk Bottom line.

It is true that older used tires age due to oxidation and the rubber becomes harder. An unused old tire probably has the same problem.

yes. we need winter tires for snow or ice. enough of this stupidity and ignorance.

If you can afford to live in Vancouver you can afford winter tires

People need to stop buying all-season tyres and go buy all-weather tyres. The difference? All season tyres are summer tires with a bit of cold weather capabilities. All weather tyres are based off winter tyres, but also have warm weather capabilities.

J L This is all semantics, with no real definition. Newer all season tires are being formulated with silicon particles imbedded which extends their performance in lower temperatures. The trend seems to be towards an all year tire, at least in the UK with a mild winter climate. In Canada, not so much due to a longer snow season.

How much is winter tires company paying you for this

I think you forgot to mention the "all season with winter approved tire".

“Limitations of drivers” lol I did 5 years of ice racing in Europe I think I’m quite comfortable in the snow

Another myth. Now, i dont know about all wheel drive BUT FOUR WHEEL DRIVE with a TRANSFER CASE will ABSOLUTELY IMPROVE braking distance. For anyone who does not believe....go to YT Channel Oneil Driving School and search for 4WD and improved braking. One video I watched, an F250 plow pickup nearly stopped 2 full truck lengths quicker in FOUR HIGH RANGE. I wish People would quit perpetuating this false myth. Oneil driving also does one video with a Tacoma...almost like mine and 4HI the stopping distance is vastly quicker in 4HI. ABS on will also increase stop distance. If you can turn ABS off, braking on snow and ice is improved as well. BTW...I use Goodyear Duratracs in the winter. In summer, Goodyear Adventure.
