Hello, I would choose winter tyres with the mountain-and-snowflake marking (3PMSF), in the full specification approved for your particular Model 3. “R18” means radial construction and an 18-inch rim diameter; it does not specify tyre width, aspect ratio or load and speed ratings. Check those against your vehicle documentation before ordering. Once the specification is confirmed, I would prioritise wet braking and snow performance in recent independent tests, preferably in the exact size. Compare the EU label’s wet-grip and rolling-resistance ratings too: rolling resistance affects driving range, while the label’s noise figure describes external noise, not cabin quietness. I would keep the same tyre model on all four wheels. Could you provide the model year, full tyre marking and whether your winter driving is mainly on wet roads or frequent snow?
