Ford Explorer Winter Tires & Wheel Packages

Ontario winters call for the right equipment, and a purpose-built tire and wheel package gives your Ford Explorer the grip it needs on snow-covered roads.

Bolton Ford, serving drivers near Bolton, Caledon, and Brampton, Ontario, carries Ford Explorer winter tires & wheel packages that pair OEM-approved alloy wheels with premium winter rubber, tire pressure monitoring sensors, and professional installation in one complete package.

What Your Winter Wheel Package Includes

Every Ford Explorer winter tire and wheel package from our parts centre is a complete, ready-to-install setup matched to your vehicle's specifications.

OEM-approved alloy wheels sized for your Explorer's model and trim
Firestone Winterforce 2 tires rated for severe winter performance
Tire Pressure Monitoring Sensors (TPMS) for consistent accuracy
Professional mounting, balancing, and installation
Factory-recommended fitment and load ratings

With our Ford winter tires & wheel packages, every component is purpose-matched, so your Explorer is winter-ready the moment your appointment wraps up.

Benefits of a Dedicated Winter Set

A separate set of winter wheels and tires protects your factory rims from road salt, calcium chloride, and corrosion that Ontario winters bring. Seasonal changeovers become quicker when each set stays mounted on its own wheels, and both your summer and winter rubber last longer as a result.

Winter-rated compounds stay pliable in temperatures below 7 degrees Celsius, maintaining grip where all-season tires stiffen. For drivers commuting between Vaughan and Toronto, that translates to shorter stopping distances and steadier control through snow and ice.

OEM Engineering for Cold-Weather Confidence

A factory-approved Ford Explorer winter tire setup preserves correct brake clearance, load ratings, and sensor calibration for your specific vehicle.

Ford-certified technicians verify every detail during installation, confirming that each component meets the standards your Explorer was built around. These details deliver more predictable braking and better cornering stability through the harshest winter conditions.

FAQs

Do winter tires need to go on all four wheels?

Yes. All four wheels should wear winter tires, and this applies to every drivetrain configuration, including FWD, AWD, and 4WD.

Installing a set of two creates mismatched grip between the front and rear axles, which can lead to oversteer, understeer, or reduced directional stability during braking and lane changes. A complete set of four keeps traction balanced and handling predictable on snowy and icy roads.

How do you check winter tire tread depth?

Slide a Canadian toonie between two tread blocks and observe how far the tread reaches. As a general guideline, if the tread covers roughly one-quarter or more of the coin's face, the tire still offers adequate depth for winter driving.

Inspect each tire before the season for signs of cracking, bald spots, uneven wear, or missing tread pieces, and replace any tire that shows visible damage.

How much extra traction do winter tires provide over all-seasons?

Specialized rubber compounds, deeper tread patterns, and added siping allow winter tires to deliver up to 50% greater traction in cold and snowy conditions compared to all-season alternatives.* That additional grip shortens stopping distances and strengthens steering response, helping drivers maintain control on packed snow, slush, and icy surfaces.
