Winter tires

Winter tires are designed for driving in road conditions with ice and snow. The tread depth on winter tires should be deeper than that of regular tires.

Dimensions

When driving with winter tires, it's important that all four tires are of the correct type. Contact Polestar Customer Support for advice.

Studded tires

Studded winter tires should be run-in gently for 500-1,000 km (300-600 miles) so that the studs settle properly into the tires. This gives the tire, and especially the studs, a longer service life.

 Note

Legal regulations regarding the use of studded tires may vary. Make sure the tires you have mounted are in full compliance with local regulations and laws.

Tread depth

Road conditions with ice, slush, snow and low temperatures put higher demands on your tires than summer conditions. Polestar recommends that winter tires have a tread depth of at least 4 millimeters (0.15 inch).

 Note

Speed rating

Winter tires1 are allowed to have a lower speed rating than your vehicle's top speed. However, if your winter tires do have a lower speed rating than your vehicle's top speed, you are not allowed to drive faster than the tires' speed rating.
