As winter approaches in the northern hemisphere, the sight of snow-covered landscapes is becoming more common. It’s a clear sign that it’s time for the annual ritual of switching from summer to winter tires. Some might argue that SUVs with their all-wheel drive don’t need specialized winter tires, but that might not be the whole story.

The ability to brake safely and navigate corners plays a crucial role, too. Previous discussions about snow tires have emphasized that even all-wheel drive can’t save you if your tires lack the necessary grip. This brings us to an intriguing video by Jonathan Benson at Tyre Reviews, focused on dedicated winter tires tailored for the unique characteristics of SUVs.
