Cold weather tyres

As the days get shorter, the nights are longer, the heating has to be turned back on and long-johns are beginning to sound like a good idea. Winter's come again.

Low temperatures

It's not only brass monkey's who don't like the cold. Temperatures under 7ºC mean that normal tyres don't perform as well in winter conditions, which is why you should consider cold weather tyres. Designed to give optimum performance on the coldest of days, cold weather tyres help to ensure the driver's and passenger's safety throughout the winter season.

Winter shunts

With darker nights and adverse weather conditions, 'shunts' between vehicles massively increase in the winter. Cold weather tyres can give better grip and so help improve driver/passenger safety.
