Winter Tyres

The is a general lack of awareness in the UK about winter tyres. People tend to think winter tyres are just for use on snow and ice and that our weather doesn't warrant the expense. The reality is that it makes a lot of sense to fit them in the UK. The first thing to be aware of is that winter tyres perform better than normal tyres in temperatures of 7 degrees C and under, temperatures that are very common throughout UK winters.

Here are some of the benefits over summer tyres (UK standard tyres):.

winter tyre compounds don't harden in low temperatures
winter tyres are designed to work at their optimum grip at low temperatures (7 degrees C and below), whereas summer tyres lose grip as temperatures fall
tests have shown that a vehicle fitted with winter tyres will come to standstill from 30 mph on a surface covered with snow after 35 metres. The same vehicle with summer tyres requires 43 metres
there are similar advantages braking on ice covered roads

The above information was obtained from the Continental Tyres website. See the full details on their "Why Winter Tyres" page
