Are you looking for Winter Tyres for your vehicle?

Winter tyres

Every car is different, so are the tyres that are installed with them. The same applies to winter tyres. Winter tyres are useful on the roads when the temperature drops from seven degrees to below. Our technicians recommend the drivers community in Harrow to not forget exchanging the summer tyres with suitable winter tyres Harrow before meeting the snow-laden roads. We, Harrow budget tyres, are here to help you with your purchase of high-quality winter tyres.

What are winter tyres?

Uniquely designed tyres with softer rubber mixed with silica make the compound of tyres that provide excellent traction on the roads when the temperatures go below 7 degrees Celsius. These are winter tyres. The tyres also come with specially carved smaller grooves known as sipes. Sipes in the tyres help the car displace more water and hence, prevent aquaplaning.

What is aquaplaning?

Aquaplaning is a dangerous phenomenon that occurs when the tyres are unable to displace the required amount of water, snow, or slush on the road; as a result, the vehicle tends to skid uncontrollably. The water/snow/slush not displaced forms a layer that resists the gripping of the tyres and hence, causes the vehicle skid even after the application of brakes.

It is not a legal concern with winter tyres when you don't install them with your car in the UK in winters. But, it is always advisable that you fix them on your vehicles for additional safety.

Winter tyres have a directional tread pattern that further decreases the slipping of the vehicle, and provide an exceptional ride in the forward direction.

If you drive your vehicle with winter tyres on in the summer as well, the tyres will wear out more and also will fail to match the performance offered by summer tyres. Therefore, we suggest you keep two different sets of tyres for different weather conditions.

The only challenge with winter tyres is in the storage of the tyres after the season has ended. For proper storage, you will need a dark and cold place, away from the natural light. Sunlight acts as a catalyst for the ageing of the tyres and helps it develop more cracks than usual. Another thing that you should keep away from these tyres is a natural solvent that further enhances the ageing of the tyres. But all of the issues are easily manageable, and we make many services available that can help you with the cause.
