As we’re all aware, the best time of the year for seasonal savings is
Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
In the run-up to both of these dates, particularly on the respective days, most commerce brands around the world hold sales on products and/or services for their customers – here at Tyres4U, it’s no different.
This time of year is not only good to save money on your next
tyre purchase, but it’s also the perfect time to invest in winter tyres if you haven’t already, or your set of
winter tyres needs upgrading.
That’s what this article will cover: the purpose of winter tyres, the most popular winter tyre models based on customer purchases at Tyres4U, and where to find the best deals for these seasonal tyres.
What Are Winter Tyres?
Winter tyres are designed to deliver maximum safety and control when temperatures drop below 7°C.
They’re made with softer rubber compounds that stay flexible in freezing conditions, allowing for better grip and shorter braking distances on cold, icy, or snowy roads.
The tread patterns on winter tyres feature deep grooves and thousands of biting edges that help disperse snow, slush, and water – reducing the risk of
aquaplaning.
Compared to summer tyres, they offer superior handling and traction in winter conditions, ensuring safer driving through the harshest months of the year.
For drivers across the UK, fitting winter tyres can make a huge difference to performance and confidence during the colder season.
