all-season tire

Any-weather road grip

An all-season tire is designed to perform adequately in varied weather conditions—dry pavement, rain, and light snow—without requiring seasonal changes.

Most passenger vehicles come equipped with all-season tires as a compromise between summer and winter performance: I don't bother with snow tires since I have all-seasons.

They sacrifice some grip in extreme conditions for year-round convenience.
