About summer tires

Summer tires use a firmer compound and a simpler tread pattern with fewer sipes, maximising the rubber in contact with the road. That delivers the strongest dry braking and cornering grip, plus strong wet performance in warm conditions.

They are intended for use above roughly 7 °C (45 °F). Below that the compound stiffens and grip falls away sharply, so they should not be run through winter.

Frequently asked questions

What is a summer tire?

Summer tires use a firmer compound and a simpler tread pattern with fewer sipes, maximising the rubber in contact with the road. That delivers the strongest dry braking and cornering grip, plus strong wet performance in warm conditions.

When should I fit summer tires?

They are intended for use above roughly 7 °C (45 °F). Below that the compound stiffens and grip falls away sharply, so they should not be run through winter.

What should I look for when buying summer tires?

Check the speed rating matches or exceeds your vehicle's requirement — summer tires are commonly fitted to performance cars with high speed ratings.

How much do summer tires cost?

At ExtraBrake they range from $79.71 to $1321.65 per tire, or $318.84 to $5286.60 for a set of four, across 14 brands.

Should I replace all four tires at once?

Fitting a matched set of four keeps grip balanced at both axles, which matters most in low-grip conditions. If you replace only two, they should go on the rear axle to reduce the risk of oversteer, regardless of which wheels drive the car.
