About Winter Tires
Winter Tires in Medicine Hat | Murray Hyundai Tire Centre
Alberta winters need real traction, not guesswork. At Murray Hyundai Medicine Hat, we help you choose the right winter or all-weather tires for your Hyundai, then install them properly so you feel confident on cold mornings, snowy side streets, and highway drives on the Trans-Canada.
We support drivers across Medicine Hat, Redcliff, Dunmore, Brooks, Bow Island, and Cypress County. If you are comparing M+S to the 3-Peak Mountain Snowflake symbol or deciding between winter and all-weather options, our team can point you in the right direction for local conditions.
What Classifies as a Winter Tire?
A winter tire (on a standard passenger vehicle or a four-wheel/all-wheel drive vehicle) should have at least 3.5 mm of tread depth to provide optimal traction.
A winter tire should be labelled with either of the following:
  The letters "M" and "S", the minimum legal requirement (mud + snow/all-season tires)
  The 3-peaked mountain/snowflake symbol (some manufacturers label with both the mountain snowflake and the M+S symbol)
3-peaked mountain/snowflake tires (which include all-weather tires) offer better traction on snow and ice. We recommend drivers install 3-peaked mountain/snowflake tires for cold weather driving and, for extreme conditions, carry chains.
Summer tires are not recommended for driving during designated winter months. Chains on summer tires are not an acceptable substitute for winter tires in Alberta.
