The Right Tires Make All the Difference
Whether you're preparing for winter roads or replacing worn-out tires, West Edmonton Volkswagen has tire solutions built around your vehicle and your lifestyle. From seasonal performance and traction to Volkswagen-approved sizing, we carry brand-name tires, expertly matched to your model.
Winter Tire Advantages
When temperatures fall below 7°C, your all-season tires lose flexibility. That's when it's time to switch to winter tires engineered for cold, icy conditions. Backed by Canadian research, winter tires deliver dramatically better stopping distances and grip:
- 34% Shorter Braking: In icy conditions, winter tires stop up to 5.6 meters sooner than all-seasons.*
- Better Cornering: Improved lateral traction for safer turns on slippery roads.
- Hydroplaning Resistance: Deep tread grooves help displace slush and water.

Tire Maintenance & Expert Tips
Keep your tires in top shape year-round with regular inspections and service. Here are expert tips from your Volkswagen Certified Technicians:
- Check Tire Pressure: Underinflated tires reduce fuel efficiency and wear faster. Overinflation leads to uneven wear.
- Rotate Tires: Regular rotation helps distribute wear evenly across all wheels.
