Winter Tires.
Below 7 degrees.
Don't Risk It.

Calgary winters hit fast. When temperatures drop below 7 degrees Celsius, all season tires lose up to 50% of their grip. Purpose-built winter tires stay soft and biting at -30 degrees — shorter stops, better cornering, real control on black ice.

Why Winter Tires

Calgary Road Law

Recommended for Alberta winter driving and required on many mountain routes.

Are winter tires required in Calgary?
Not required in city limits, but strongly recommended for winter safety.
Do I need winter tires if I have AWD?

Studless vs Studded — which is better for Calgary?
Studless for city driving, studded for heavy ice and mountain routes.
Do I need to buy 4 winter tires?
Yes, install four matching winter tires for balanced handling and braking.
When should I put my winter tires on in Calgary?
Install when average daily temps stay below 7C, usually late October.
