Why buy new tyres for your car
Tyres may not be the first thing you consider when it comes to vehicle safety, but they’re your vehicle’s only link with the road. In fact, your safety (and that of your passengers) relies on an area of contact between the tyre and the road surface that’s no bigger than the palm of your hand.
The season and country you’re in can also affect what tyres are suitable for your vehicle. Those who travel to Europe in winter will already know that snow tyres are a legal requirement in certain countries, for example. Find the right tyres for your car

FAQs Winter Tyres
Winter tyres are designed to give better traction and grip in cold conditions. To achieve this, they are made with a softer compound and have deep grooves and narrow sipes (cuts) built into their tread. This helps disperse water and snow faster than normal tyres and allows for the rubber to move around, keeping it in contact with the road.
Winter tyres are mandatory in many European countries that experience harsh winters. They typically work best at temperatures below seven degrees Celsius – so while not required by law, using winter tyres in the UK still makes sense for large parts of the year.
They’re especially useful for improving road safety in remote parts of the UK, including countryside areas where drifts are common and gritting is less so. Find out more in our ultimate guide to winter tyres.
Winter tyres perform better in winter conditions due to their specialised design. As well as improved steering and acceleration, they offer shorter stopping distances at cold temperatures than summer tyres even if it’s dry.
The difference is more significant in snow as these tyres offer grip even when the tread is packed. When it comes to driving in heavy snow, a two-wheel-drive car fitted with these tyres is considered safer than a 4x4 on summer tyres.
While car tyres for snow and ice are more effective than all-season tyres in harsh winter conditions, they’re not as well suited to flooded roads. They still offer a safety upgrade over normal summer tyres in these situations, however.
Downsides of winter tyres include faster wear and more noise on normal roads in warmer months, as well as slightly reduced fuel economy. You can overcome these issues by swapping your tyres as the seasons change. To find out more about how winter tyres can keep your car healthy in the winter months, take a look at our in-depth guide.
The advantages of having winter tyres fitted are significant and can reduce the risk and severity of accidents. You can take confidence from:
Shorter stopping distances when driving on snow and ice
Improved handling in winter conditions due to their specialised design
Less risk of aquaplaning thanks to the ability of their tread pattern to disperse water
Winter tyre prices vary depending on your car and the quality of your chosen tyre. They tend to be a similar or marginally higher price than normal tyres. Use our tyre search bar to see what your options are.
A full set may seem like a large outlay – but it could be more than worth it if you live in colder areas or know you’ll be racking up miles over winter. Using winter road tyres can also extend the lifespan of your summer tyres and save you money on replacements.
Cheap winter tyres are available but beware that higher-quality options tend to offer better performance and durability, which could save you money in the long run. Rest assured that we aim to offer the best winter tyre prices available regardless of your chosen brand or specification.
Winter tyres have a snowflake symbol on the sidewall. Some tyres will be marked ‘M+S’ for mud and snow, meaning they are designed with these conditions in mind but are not as specialised.
Switching between summer and winter tyres as the seasons change is a smart way to make sure your vehicle is suited to the right road conditions. On top of improved safety and driving performance, switching tyres regularly can help maintain their condition.
That’s why it’s good to know you can get your winter tyres fitted near you by our experts when you need to. Simply book a fitting date that suits you at your local Protyre garage.
When it comes to storing your extra tyres, try to keep them in a cool, shady and dry space. Rotate them regularly to move the pressure around too.
