Summer Tyres

Under no circumstances should winter tyres be used during the summertime - even if their tread pattern is still good compared to that of your old summer tyres.

This is because summer tyres are often exposed to high temperatures during the warm season. Winter tyres are not designed for this and, when used in summer, lead to considerable impairments in driving safety. When you buy summer tyres Shardlow, you as a car owner should pay attention to the rubber compound. In contrast to winter tyres, summer tyres have a unique and much harder rubber compound. Therefore, even high temperatures don't affect their condition. This means that high speeds are possible with little wear and tear. The tread pattern of new summer tyres is flat so that the vehicle has a good grip on dry roads. The longitudinal grooves also displace water when it rains. Buying summer tyres is also worthwhile financially. Because the straighter tread of summer tyres reduces rolling resistance, this not only makes for a more comfortable ride due to the lower rolling noise but also has a positive effect on fuel consumption.
