Winter has take a firm grip on the UK this year and Event Tyres have seen a massive increase in customers purchasing winter tyres. The fact that winter tyres perform best at temperatures below 7°C means that they can provide safer diving conditions for around 5-6 months of the year in the UK.
Maybe we can look at this another way …
When the pavements are covered in snow or ice, most people automatically think of changing their footwear to a more suitable type – For instance, with snow and ice on the ground it would be inconceivable to wear a pair of leather soled shoes as you would have no grip whatsoever. The same principle applies to your car tyres. You cannot expect a car tyre to be suitable for every condition. A standard car tyre can get clogged up with snow and ice and add to this the fact that the rubber gets stiffer, providing less grip, you basically have the leather sole shoe situation with your car.
Winter tyres are a huge safety advancement in motoring and a sound investment in your pocket. Consider fitting winter tyres and benefit from better grip at lower temperatures, better grip in snow and ice and shorter stopping distances of 10% in rain and 20% in snow.
