Steer, drive, and trailer tires built for Canadian highways and winter conditions. HATT-engineered for lowest cost per kilometre. CMVSS 119 compliant, M+S rated, and backed by a 3-retread casing guarantee.
Canada's trucking industry generates over $65 billion in annual revenue and moves more than 90% of all consumer goods. With over 300,000 commercial trucks traversing Canada's vast highway network, from the temperate coasts of British Columbia to the harsh winters of Quebec and the Arctic routes of the North, Canadian fleets require tires that can withstand extreme temperature swings, icy road conditions, and massive distances between stops. Hanksugi delivers HATT-engineered tires that meet these demands while keeping your cost per kilometre at its lowest.
Hanksugi tires meet Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 119 for commercial truck tires. Fully compliant with Transport Canada regulations, DOT-certified, and SmartWay-verified by the EPA for fuel efficiency. Your fleet stays legal and efficient on every Canadian highway.
All Hanksugi drive and all-position tires carry the M+S (Mud and Snow) rating, meeting winter tire requirements in Quebec and British Columbia. Cold-weather compound formulations maintain flexibility and grip in temperatures down to -40°C, critical for Canadian winters.
HATT (Helical Advanced Tire Technology) engineering delivers ultra-high mileage with even tread wear. Combined with low rolling resistance and fuel savings, Hanksugi tires offer the most competitive total cost of ownership for Canadian long-haul and regional fleets.
In Canada, Hanksugi guarantees 3 retread cycles per casing — one more than the standard 2 retreads offered in the USA and Latin America. Our reinforced casing construction and high-tensile steel belts maintain structural integrity through every retread, significantly reducing your fleet's tire budget.
Canada's highway network stretches over 38,000 km of national routes. Whether your fleet runs the Trans-Canada from Vancouver to Halifax, the Highway 401 corridor through Ontario, or the northern routes into Alberta's oil sands, Hanksugi tires are engineered for the extended distances and varied terrain that define Canadian trucking.
Founded in Japan in 2000, Hanksugi's Helical Advanced Tire Technology optimises tread pattern geometry for uniform wear, stone ejection, and maximum casing life. Each tire is built with premium-grade compounds selected for cold-climate durability, heat resistance during summer highway runs, and consistent performance year-round.
Hanksugi serves fleets across every Canadian province, with particular strength in the four largest commercial trucking markets.
Canada's largest fleet market and the economic engine of the country. Ontario hosts the Highway 401 corridor — the busiest highway in North America — connecting Toronto, the GTA, and the US border crossings at Windsor-Detroit and Fort Erie-Buffalo. Hanksugi tires handle the high-traffic, high-speed demands of Ontario's logistics network.
Quebec mandates winter tires for all vehicles, including commercial trucks, from December 1 through March 15. Hanksugi's M+S rated tires comply with Quebec's requirements. Montreal and Quebec City are major freight hubs connecting Eastern Canada to the US Northeast via the Highway 417/20 corridor.
Alberta's energy sector drives heavy-duty trucking demand, from oil sands operations in Fort McMurray to the Calgary–Edmonton corridor along Highway 2. Hanksugi's vocational and drive tires are built for the demanding conditions of oilfield haul roads and the extreme cold of northern Alberta winters.
BC's mountain passes require winter tires or chains from October 1 through April 30 on designated highways. Hanksugi's M+S rated tires meet BC highway regulations. From the Port of Vancouver — Canada's largest port — through the Coquihalla and Rogers Pass corridors, Hanksugi delivers grip and durability on BC's steepest grades.
Canadian winter tire regulations vary by province. Hanksugi's M+S rated commercial tires meet the requirements in all jurisdictions with winter tire mandates.
Winter tires mandatory December 1 – March 15 for all vehicles including commercial trucks. Tires must be marked with the M+S symbol or the Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake (3PMSF). Hanksugi M+S tires are fully compliant. Fines for non-compliance range from $200 to $300 per tire.
Winter tires or chains required October 1 – April 30 on designated highways including the Trans-Canada (Highway 1), Coquihalla (Highway 5), Highway 97, and most mountain passes. Tires must carry M+S or 3PMSF markings with minimum 3.5 mm tread depth. Hanksugi M+S tires meet all BC winter requirements.
No mandatory winter tire laws for commercial vehicles, but M+S or winter-rated tires are strongly recommended by provincial transport authorities. Insurance providers in Ontario may offer premium discounts for fleets running winter-rated tires. Hanksugi M+S tires provide year-round confidence across all Canadian provinces.
Hanksugi tires are proven on every major Canadian freight corridor, from coast to coast and border to north.
7,821 km coast to coast — the longest national highway in the world. From Victoria, BC to St. John's, Newfoundland, this route crosses mountains, prairies, the Canadian Shield, and Atlantic Canada. Hanksugi long-haul tires deliver consistent performance across every terrain and climate zone.
The busiest highway in North America, carrying over 500,000 vehicles per day through the Greater Toronto Area. This corridor connects Detroit/Windsor, Toronto, and Montreal, serving as the backbone of Canada-US trade. High-speed, high-volume conditions demand the durability and even wear that Hanksugi HATT technology delivers.
The Calgary–Edmonton corridor, Alberta's primary north-south freight route. This 300 km stretch connects Canada's energy capital to the oil sands supply chain and handles massive volumes of heavy-haul equipment, fuel tankers, and general freight year-round in temperatures from +35°C to -40°C.
The Ottawa–Montreal corridor, a critical interprovincial freight route connecting Ontario and Quebec. This highway links two of Canada's largest metropolitan areas and carries significant cross-border trade volume. Hanksugi tires handle the transition from Ontario's flat highways to Quebec's winter-intensive road conditions.
BC's longest highway and the gateway to the Alaska Highway. From the Okanagan through Prince George to the Yukon border, Highway 97 demands tires built for steep grades, harsh winters, and remote stretches without service. Hanksugi's stone ejection technology and cold-weather compounds are ideal for this demanding corridor.
