Driving conditions in Kingston
Cold, long winters and freezing rain on the 401 corridor make ice performance the deciding factor. Most Kingston drivers we fit are running SUVs, pickups and university commuter cars, and they spend their kilometres on Highway 401, Princess Street and Highway 15. This is real snowbelt territory. A dedicated winter set on a second rim package is the single biggest safety upgrade you can make.
