Since these tires are flexible, they offer superior traction in the snow and ice. They are utilized for a specific amount of time each year and, if properly maintained, may survive for up to four or five seasons.

It is anticipated that the additional safety provided by snow and ice tires will increase consumer demand by 1.9X throughout the projected period.
