Winter Tires in London, Ontario

Shipping winter tires to London, ON, free to your door anywhere in Canada, with Affirm available at checkout to pay over time. London sits in Ontario's snowbelt, where lake-effect squalls off Lake Huron can drop heavy snow in hours with almost no warning. Below 7 degrees Celsius, all-season rubber hardens and loses grip, which is why a proper winter tire shortens braking on snow and ice by a wide margin.

What London Winters Do to Tires

Snow squalls are the local hazard, and they are sudden. Visibility collapses, the road disappears under fresh snow, and the 401 and 402 corridors around the city are notorious for whiteout pileups. That combination rewards a winter tire with genuine deep-snow tread that keeps pulling in accumulation, not just an all-season with a winter-ish look. Between squalls the region also swings through freeze-thaw, so ice grip matters too.

When to switch: Late October, ahead of squall season. Snowbelt drivers do not get much warning once it starts.

Ontario's Winter Tire Rules

Ontario does not require winter tires, but insurers are required by law to offer a discount, generally in the range of 2 to 5 percent, to drivers who install them. Studded tires are restricted to residents of Northern Ontario. See winter tire laws in Canada for the full picture.
