Top Winter Tyre Brands We Fit
Why Choose Winter Tyres?
-
Better Grip in Cold Conditions: Special rubber compound stays flexible at low temperatures, providing superior grip and traction on icy, snowy, and wet roads.
-
Improved Braking Performance: Deeper treads and extra sipes (tiny grooves) channel water and slush away from the tyre, reducing aquaplaning and boosting braking in snow and ice.
-
Enhanced Safety: Better control and handling in cold weather helps prevent accidents and keeps you safe all winter.
-
Longevity of Your Summer Tyres: Swapping to winter tyres helps extend the life of your summer tyres, saving money in the long run.

Winter Tyres FAQs
Q - Do I really need winter tyres if I only drive locally?
A - Yes, winter tyres provide better traction, braking, and control in cold, wet, and icy conditions, even for short trips in the UK.
Q - What’s the difference between winter tyres and all-season tyres?
A - Winter tyres are designed for temps below 7°C, with extra grip on snow and ice. All-season tyres are a compromise and not as effective in severe cold or snow.
Q - When should I switch to winter tyres?
A - When temperatures stay below 7°C, usually around October–November, and keep them on until spring.
Q - Can I use winter tyres all year round?
A - Not recommended! The softer rubber wears faster in warm weather and may not perform well on dry roads.
Q - How long do winter tyres last?
A - With proper care, several seasons! It depends on use - have us check them regularly for safety.
