- 3PMS stands for Three Peak Mountain Snowflake — a symbol earned by meeting specific severe snow traction standards in testing. It is the mark Quebec requires for winter tire compliance.
- Vehicle type indicates the service category this tire is built for — passenger car, light truck, commercial, or other. Matching the right category matters for load capacity, handling, and safety.
