winter tires

Hi All, New to the forum - have really been enjoying reading your posts, especially during the grueling wait for our SE to arrive. We've now had our Island Blue since mid-June, and love how it drives. I've read through a bunch of the winter tire threads, and haven't found any opinions on the...

I purchased my 2023 Preferred in Calgary Alberta November 2022. I had aftermarket rims and winter tires installed from the get-go. Yesterday I changed to the stock (aerodynamic) rims with Michelin Pilot Sports. I reset the trip info and have posted the photo for your reference. Some info about...

Can you use any winter tire on an EV? Is there an advantage to getting a wheel designed for EVs? Are some wheels made for winter use? Fast Wheels is a Canadian company?! Yes, it is! I answer these and many other questions. I bought new Fast EV wheels for my Kia EV6 for winter use, and I bought...

Does anyone have recommendations for winter tires? I recently just got a '22 EX model and am looking to put winter treads on since I live in a very snowy and icy part of upstate New York. Thanks!

I'd like to get a second set of wheels with winter tires and be able to swap the two sets myself if possible. Looking for recommendations for inexpensive rim and good snow tires. Are there any videos on how to lift the car at home? What kind of jack to use and where to place it under the car in...

Hello all, Its my first time posting on the forum, I wanted to thank everyone for posting all the useful information here. It helped me with the purchase and to get a great price as well as helped with the small adventure I've been through post purchase (said adventure did get me some pretty...

Hi, I will hopefully be getting my Kona in December, being my first EV, which will mean winter driving! What winter tires and rims did you get for your Kona? I am aware that using non-oem rims will likely increase aero drag, but can't justify the expense for a couple more kms of range (I will...

I've noticed a few people having concerns about getting snow tires on steel rims and how the weight of the rims/tires might impact mileage/road noise. I'd encourage you to look into my solution - All Weather tires. My local tire dealer (Kal Tire) carries Nokian and Nordman (value brand of...
