Do AWD Vehicle Tire Sizes All Need to Match?

All-wheel-drive vehicles are getting more popular every year thanks to their superior traction and stability in different terrains and weather. So, what does this mean for your customers’ choice of tires? We talk about that in this Tire Review Continental Tire Garage Studio video. Unlike traditional two-wheel-drive vehicles, AWD systems deliver power to all four wheels. Now, this is different than with four-wheel-drive systems, where the front and rear axles are mechanically linked together, usually by a transfer case.

I have a 2019 Honda CRV, that has some sidewall damage on one tire. The tires aren't old at all. New they come with 10/32" tread depth and my current tires are at 9/32". Hopefully just doing 1 tire isn't going to lead to more trouble

I never knew why Subaru always wanted me to change all 4 tires if I had a blowout on one. Thanks.

That's a dumb design... replacing four tires for one blow out is extortion.
