While all-season tires can seem from their name to be a
good compromise among the many tire types, summer tires have a few
surprising advantages that give them a slight edge over their all-season
counterpart.
If you live in a climate prone to plenty
of rainfall, summer tires will actually offer a better advantage on wet
pavement, due to both their composition and their tread. The blend of
rubber used in summer tires makes them adhere to the road better, being
more malleable than the stiffer blend found on all-season tires. The
grooves and tread pattern of summer tires are less pronounced, giving
them more surface area for a sturdier grip on the
road.
