Is it acceptable to have different tread patterns for front and rear snow tires?
1 Answers
Snow tires with different tread patterns between the front and rear can be used, but it is best to use the same brand and from the same period. Precautions for tire installation: When installing tires, pay attention to their directional installation. If installed in reverse, it may result in uneven grip between the two sides of the wheels. On slippery roads, this can lead to asynchronous braking force, poor handling, and deviation, which poses certain risks. Function of snow tires: Snow tires are specifically designed for ice and snow surfaces, offering stronger grip. The tread of snow tires also uses a carefully formulated silica-mixed rubber compound, which enhances the contact between the tread and the smooth ice surface.
