Every spring, drivers ask the same question: when is the right time to switch from winter tires to summer tires? The answer depends not only on the calendar. Both legal requirements and actual weather conditions play an important role. What Does the Law Say? In Estonia, the use of winter tires is mandatory from December 1 to March 1. Studded tires are allowed from October 1 to March 31. If weather conditions require it, studded tires may be used until April 30.This means that, according to the law, summer tires can technically be installed already at the beginning of March. However, in practice this is not always the most sensible decision.

Rehvid Pluss has added a new and rapidly growing tyre brand – Atlander. This international manufacturer focuses on winter and studded tyres tested in Nordic conditions, combining high quality with an affordable price. Atlander has introduced two completely new Nordic studded models – Lander Studs ATL77 and ATL78. Both were developed in cooperation with Finnish engineers and tested in Finland’s harsh winter conditions to ensure reliable grip on ice, snow, and slush. The tyres are TRAFICOM approved, confirming their safety and suitability for Northern climates.

Winter doesn’t give up – and neither should your choice of winter tyres. Kumho introduces its latest models: the studded WinterCraft Ice Wi32 and the friction-type WinterCraft Ice Wi51, both designed specifically for the demanding winters of the North. Independently tested in Finland and Sweden, these tyres offer proven grip, confident handling, and pricing up to 25% lower than Hankook – without compromising on safety or quality.
