Michael – tyres Braintree writes: If you are thinking about fitting winter tyres to your car, but are not sure if it is worth the hassle or the money, take a few minutes to watch our video.

Unfortunately, there are many misconceptions about winter tyres, some argue they are only worth having when the roads are covered with snow or ice, but this is just not true.

Winter tyres actually come into their own when the temperature dropsbelow 7C, which even during our milder winter’s, is a regular occurrence for us between October and March.

What happens is, regular ‘all season’ tyres quickly become less flexible which makes them lose their ability to grip the road and dramatically increases your stopping distance.

However, winter tyres remain flexible and grip better when temperatures drop below 7C because they contain a greater amount of naturalrubber and silicone.

If you want to find out more or place an order for winter tyres, call our National Sales Team on freephone 0800 028 9000 and we will help you get the best deal.
