I refuse to put on winter tires because: • It’s my car, my choice, my freedom. • The effectiveness of winter tires is not proven, except by studies carried out by the manufacturers (like I’m supposed to trust them). • My neighbor Bob had an accident even after putting on winter tires. • Some drivers are already on their 3rd set of tires, which proves their ineffectiveness. • We do not know what the tires are made of. • The tire manufacturers scare us with winter just to enrich themselves. • In fact, I read on the internet that the tire giants invented snow and spread it at night when you sleep. • If I have winter tires, the government can track me in the snow.
Educate yourself, open your eyes, stop being sheep!
This year, I say no to winter tires! 😁

Do you really need lugged or studded tires in Colombia James?

I'm sorry James but that is one of the most ignorant arguments that I have ever read. Are you sure that you are not confusing tires with vaccination??
The effectiveness of winter tires has been well proven over decades and they are obligatory in very many countries in winter. Winter tyres will not prevent a bad driver from having accidents any more than summer tyres. The life of a tyre has nothing to do with their effectiveness and a lot to do with the driver. The fact that you do not appear to know what tires are made of applies to all tires, winter and summer. Winter tires cost little more than summer tires so no tire manufacturer is getting rich at your expense. I suggest that you stop reading the internet until you learn the difference between fact and fiction. If you have something to hide from the government tracking you, you should not be out there at all. By the way, sheep do not use winter tyres!

You have to admit, it would be funny to hear some car in Medellin tooling around with a set of studs on their drive wheels. Next thing you know the kids will think its something to be shown on TikTok and then you will hear the clatter of studded tires all over the place!
