2. Snow tire - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snow_tire

   [21] [22] As of 2016, snow tires were 3.6% of the US market and 35% of the Canadian market. [23] US states and Canadian provinces control the use of snow tires. [24] Of these, Quebec is the only jurisdiction that requires snow tires throughout. [25] Some may require snow tires or chains only in specified areas during the winter. [26] [27] [28]

3. Siping (rubber) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siping_(rubber)

   John Sipe's invention was unsuccessful. It was applied to solid rubber tires, rather than pneumatic tires, and so the tires had poor wet grip anyway, owing to their limited contact patch. It was his son, Harry E. Sipe, who popularised the use of sipes in the US for the new low-pressure balloon tires around 1939. [3]

4. Do snow tires wear out faster on dry roads than on snowy and ...

   www.aol.com/snow-tires-wear-faster-dry-100342016...

   A: Winter tires have softer rubber compounds that add to the traction in snow, ice and cold temperatures. Due to the construction of the tires, they will wear a bit faster, which is why they are ...

5. Tire-pressure monitoring system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire-pressure_monitoring...

   A tire-pressure monitoring system (TPMS) monitors the air pressure inside the pneumatic tires on vehicles. [1] A TPMS reports real-time tire-pressure information to the driver, using either a gauge, a pictogram display, or a simple low-pressure warning light. TPMS can be divided into two different types – direct (dTPMS) and indirect (iTPMS).

   Similar traction-improving patterns have been implemented on the surface of the wheels on tractors. These include strakes, where material is removed from the surface of the wheel to achieve protrusion; cleats, with spikes instead of straight bars; and lugs with raised rubber on a tire tread.

   Those factors include the depth of the warm layer from the surface into the snow-producing cloud as well as the amount of ice in the snow-producing cloud, the National Weather Service said.

9. Tire tread - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire_tread

   Mountain bike and some motorcycle tires feature tread similar to off-road tires used on cars and trucks but may sometimes include an unbroken tread that runs along its center. This feature provides better traction and lower noise on asphalt at high speed and on high tire pressure, but retains the ability to provide grip on a soft or loose ...
