2011 Kia Soul Tires






Tires are among the most overlooked components on your Kia Soul, though their role in optimizing handling, braking, and other aspects of vehicle performance is big enough. Having a brand-new tire set on your car can surely help regain some of its lost performance characteristics. All-seasons feature a variety of advantages, which allow you to forget about the hassle of seasonal tire changeovers. Silica-infused compounds allow the rubber to stay within the required flexibility limits in a wide range of temps. Well-designed treads ensure decent traction and grip in many types of weather conditions, reducing any chances of aquaplaning.

Winter tires utilize extensive inclusions of natural rubber which keeps them pliable in the wintertime cold, when the temperatures go down considerably. They feature treads which rise higher, ruts and channels which are deep and wide, and shoulder blocks which extend considerably, all in order to grind into frozen snow, slush, and ice. 2011 Kia Soul tires rated for summer use are made with plenty of synthetic rubber and carbon, so that the final units would be hard enough for the warmer spring weather and summer heat. They have less prominent treads, shallower channels and grooves, and no shoulder blocks, all in order to maximize the footprint on the road at higher temperatures.

Fantastic Winter Tire, Average For Other Seasons
I bought a pair of these for my car just before winter of 2021. They've been on for a couple thousand miles now and honestly for the price these are probably the best winter tires you can get. My car came with a terrible feature from the factory where if it senses any wheelslip it will cut all power to the wheels. It ends up being a particular problem when going uphill. Anyway, this past season I hadnt experienced nearly any uphill slips which is a pretty good testament to this tire's grip in the snow and ice. Now its spring and for the few warm and dry days there have been, these tires grip well enough. They certainly aren't a track tire and can't take much lateral load before giving out, but hey it's cheap- what do you expect. One minor mishap I had right before winter hit was that I hit a pothole doing 15-20mph and blew out the sidewall, rendering the tire useless. I'm not sure if it was because of the tire or the weather or the pot hole, but I did have to shell out another ~$100 for a new one. Even with that mishap, I'll still probably get these in the future if I need a winter tire.
