So guys what do you think. Should they or shouldn't they. Studies have shown that winter tires do allow you to stop earlier, but do you think every car should have them on in winter time in Ontario. My opinion is that it's not the tire it's the driver. I'm 100% sure that one day the minister of transportation will say it's time to have them on and you will have no choice but to have them on. I would just feel sorry for those families that are living pay cheque to pay cheque where they will have to dish out X amount of dollars for tires.
