For regular, all-weather tires, it’s recommended to change them every 25,000 to 80,000 miles, depending on levels of wear and intentions for use. However, if you use seasonal tires, you’ll want to change them with the seasons. Winter tires are to provide a better grip on wet and icy surfaces. They render more traction and higher performance overall, especially in the cold. The catch-22 of winter tires is that they generally experience more wear and tear at a quicker rate. You also wouldn’t want to keep them on after the temperature rises above 45°F, as their special rubber material isn’t designed to stay as flexible in higher temperatures.
Summer tires on the other hand are optimized for road grip, cornering, braking, and acceleration. They’re great for preventing hydroplaning during floods and heavy rains. Summer tires shouldn’t be used in the winter because they become too stiff in colder temperatures.
