    What tires do you need for Baltimore weather?
    The correct choice of tires is always determined by the conditions they are meant to be used in, and climate/weather is the main one to be considered. Baltimore’s climate is humid subtropical, with long, hot, and rainy summers.
    Winters are cool here, and there’s some snowfall, however incremental (9 inches throughout the winter).

    Seasonal tire changeover

    Tires for Baltimore’s cold season

    Studded tires and tire chains are illegal in Baltimore, and driving during the snow and sleet conditions can get tricky, so all-season M+S (“mud and snow”) tires come in handy. Right now we have a stock of over 50,000 new and used all season tires on our website. You can surely make the right purchase with so many options to choose from!

    If you feel like you need more control on the snowy road, and don’t mind changing the tires more often, consider buying snow tires or winter tires, which are totally legal in Baltimore, and do a great job of preventing slipping and skidding, improving grip and traction in the difficult winter conditions.

    Tires for the hot season

    Summer tires are great for the hot and rainy spring/summer season in Baltimore, they provide better control, handling, and cornering in the hot and humid road conditions, and protect you from hydroplaning. Find them in the summer tires section of our website. Got questions on how to choose the right tires for Baltimore’s climate?
