When is the best time to switch to winter tires in the Edmonton area?

Winter tires for your Ford vehicle near Edmonton, AB 

When is the best time to switch to winter tires in the Edmonton area? Winter weather can vary every year, so we recommend watching your weather forecast for a week in advance to be prepared to make the switch. Once you see snow in the forecast, it is time to get your tires swapped. You can find winter tires for your Ford vehicle near Edmonton, AB here at Sherwood Ford in Sherwood Park. 



Where can I switch my vehicle to winter tires near Edmonton, AB? 

If you are ready to make the switch to winter tires on your Ford vehicle, then give us a call to schedule your next service appointment. Our technicians can quickly swap out your tires for your preferred replacements and have you driving safer on our wintery roads.  


Is it mandatory to use winter tires in Edmonton? 

In Alberta, it is not mandated by law that you use winter tires. However, in some provinces of Canada, it may be required, and if you plan to travel, we highly recommend winter tires for that reason and many others. Just because you have the right to use other tires, does not mean that it is the smart thing to do.
