Default Comparing All-Season, Summer & Winter Tires on Ice

We at The Tire Rack have recently tested summer, all-season and winter tires on one of the worst winter driving conditions......ice. We know summer tires are not intended to be driven on ice, however, we still receive a large number of questions inquiring about summer tires for all-season use. Watch as we compare the distinct differences between each of these tires by evaluating acceleration, stopping and cornering capabilities. The vehicles used are 3 identical 2010 BMW 328i, these test results will be very similar to the driving dynamics of the Lexus IS350/250 and ISF models. I thought these simulations would be helpful with the winter months soon upon us.
