Driving conditions in Windsor
Ontario's mildest winters with plenty of rain — wet grip and treadwear beat deep-snow traction. Most Windsor drivers we fit are running sedans, crossovers and cross-border commuters, and they spend their kilometres on Highway 401, the E.C. Row Expressway and Huron Church. Winters here are milder and wetter than most of the province, so wet braking and treadwear usually matter more than deep-snow bite.
