From November 1 to March 31 Studded Tires Are Legal in the State of Washington
Because of the many different road and weather conditions throughout our
state, when it comes to choosing winter tires, it’s not “one size fits all.”
WSDOT, along with the local tire industry, wants motorists to know there is a
variety of snow and studded tire alternatives available so they can choose the
best tire for the conditions they’ll face. Since different types of winter tires
provide varied performance under different road conditions, tire dealers can
assist motorists to select the best option for them. Visit your local tire
dealer to find out more.
Approved traction tires have at least an eighth of an inch of tread and are
labeled “Mud and Snow,” “M+S,” “MS,” “All Season,” or have a
“Mountain/Snowflake,” symbol. These tires can be used year-round. Studded tires
are approved traction tires but are only legal between Nov. 1 and Mar. 31.
Tire chains come in many varieties such as “cross link,” “cable chains,” and
plastic or nylon chains. All are legal for passenger vehicles when “ CHAINS
REQUIRED” signs are posted. Minimum chain requirements for commercial vehicles
can be found at Washington
State Patrol's Commercial Vehicle Division Website.
