Snow tires are specially designed tires built to handle cold, snowy, and icy conditions, making them an essential upgrade for Jeep owners navigating Pennsylvania winters. Unlike all-season tires, snow tires use unique rubber compounds and tread patterns that remain flexible in freezing temperatures, providing better traction, improved braking, and enhanced control on slippery roads. Installing snow tires on your Jeep can make winter driving safer and more confident, especially on icy backroads or during heavy snowfall. However, it's important to remember that snow tires are intended for cold-weather use only. They're not suitable for year-round driving, as their softer rubber can wear quickly and reduce performance in warmer conditions.

All-season tires are designed to provide a balanced performance for year-round driving, offering a compromise between traction, handling, and durability in a variety of conditions, including dry roads, light rain, and mild winter weather. Unlike snow tires, which use specialized rubber compounds and aggressive tread patterns to maintain grip on icy or snowy surfaces, all-season tires are made to perform adequately across multiple conditions without being optimized for extreme cold or deep snow. While they offer convenience and longevity for everyday driving, all-season tires won't provide the same level of traction and control as snow tires in harsh winter conditions, making them less ideal for heavier snowfalls or severely icy roads.
