Run flat tyres
The ultimate choice if you’re worried about getting a puncture, run flat tyres have either a reinforced sidewall or additional internal structure to provide support when they become deflated. They provide sufficient stability, supporting the weight of the car until you’re able to get to the nearest garage. A deflated run flat tyre should be capable of at least 50 miles (this can vary with vehicle load) at speeds of up to 50mph. They should be replaced as soon as possible following a puncture or continuous loss of pressure.
The TPMS (tyre pressure monitoring system) might need to be reset after a new tyre has been fitted.
Winter tyres
Snow and ice can dramatically affect road safety. Steering, acceleration and braking can become more difficult, as normal tyres will have less grip in these conditions. Cold and damp roads can also affect performance, which can increase the risk of an accident.
Designed to operate in these conditions, winter tyres deliver improved safety throughout the winter period. When the temperature drops below 7°C, the tread compound in normal tyres begins to harden, providing less grip. The tread compound in winter tyres contains more natural rubber and advanced silica to minimise the hardening effect and provide extra grip.
All terrain tyres
Off-road tyres provide good traction on all kinds of surfaces, on and off-road. Integral for pickups and 4x4s that access remote areas through rough terrains, they are built with durability in mind, with stronger sidewalls to resist punctures and a tread design that will help in muddy and hilly terrains.
Other tyre types include summer tyres, all-season tyres, performance tyres and energy-saving tyres.
Irrespective of the time of the year, you should carry out regular checks to ensure your tyres are in good condition for maximum safety. The legal minimum tyre tread depth is 1.6mm across the central ¾ of the tyre. Look for other signs of damage and make sure all valve caps are securely fastened. Regular checks will help you plan for timely tyre replacement, which could save you downtime and possibly money.
Tyre pressure should also be checked at least once a month or before a long journey and when the tyres are cold (travelled less than 2 miles), before being compared to the manufacturer’s recommended levels.
Drivers who don’t tend to do a lot of miles will still need to consider regular tyre replacement as the rubber compounds will degrade over time.
