M+S Marking
A tire marked with the M+S (mud and snow) symbol is suitable for mild driving conditions. An M+S tire works for light snowfall and for driving on wet or muddy roads. As of December 1, 2024, the M+S marking alone is not sufficient for winter tire use in Finland.
3PMSF Marking (3 Peak Mountain Snow Flake)
The marking on the sidewall of all-season tires indicates that the tire can be used in winter, even in countries where winter tires are mandatory. All-season tires with a 3PMSF marking are made for use in various weather conditions. These tires combine the features of winter and summer tires, meaning you can safely drive on dry or snowy roads.
