• It is unavoidable to buy summer tires if you come
  from a place that experiences scorching hot
  summer season. Unless you do not plan on using
  your vehicle during the warm season, you must
  have summer tires to continue driving comfortably
  and safely on the road. While all season tires
  are suitable for spring, summer, and fall, it
  cannot deliver the same level of performance that
  dedicated summer tires can provide.

• When you buy summer tires, you need to use them
  during the hotter months of the year. Using these
  tires during the other seasons is not
  recommended. Since the summer tires are
  specifically designed to be used on scorching
  roads, they are not good when it comes to
  treading on snowy roads. When you use them on
  snow- or ice-covered roads, the risk of skidding
  will be much higher. They are made with a special
  rubber compound that is meant to maintain a good
  grip on dusty roads and even on a slightly wet
  surface and layers of mud. However, such benefit
  is proven useless when you make sudden turns
  while driving your car on the wintry road.

• The special rubber compound that the summer tires
  are made of also ensures that it does not become
  either too soft or too hard in summer. When used
  during winter, this very feature can result in
  more rolling resistance that causes your vehicle
  to use more gas. Unless you have much money to
  waste, you will not go ahead to use these tires
  in winter knowing the strain that they will be
  putting on your finances.
