Winter Tyres and Snow Tyres explained.

The recent severe winter in 2010 has prompted many drivers to consider winter tyres or snow tyres. The weather forecasters have predicted we could see a repeat of the harsh winter we experienced in 2010 and it could even be more severe. In many parts of mainland Europe where winter weather conditions are generally more severe and more predictable than in the UK it is common practice.

Winter tyres / snow tyres use a tread rubber compound (high silica content) and tread pattern specifically designed to retain flexibility in low temperatures (below +7C) and give good braking/traction performance on snow/ice as well as on wet roads in cold conditions . The sidewall of a winter tyre / snow tyre will be marked with a symbol showing a snowflake or snow-topped mountains.

Winter tyres / snow tyres are not really suited to all year round use – summer tyres will give better performance when temperatures are higher and roads dry.

Winter tyres or Snow tyres?

Winter tyres / snow tyres have more sipes (small grooves) and remain flexible at low temperatures Winter tyres make sense for drivers living in the more remote areas of the country where winter conditions are likely to be more severe for longer.

Winter tyres are now produced by most of the main manufacturers and Trent Valley Tyres will fit them to your vehicle and store your old tyres until the spring time.

Winter tyres are best fitted in sets of four. Fitting only one pair could significantly affect the balance and stability of the car.

Tread depth and pressure

Whatever type of tyre you have fitted to your car, it's vitally important that they have adequate tread depth – at least 3mm of tread is recommended for winter motoring, and certainly no less than 2mm. Check pressures too. Don't be tempted to try reducing pressure when there's snow and ice about – it doesn't help with grip but can affect handling.
