Winter tyres from Steven Eagell Toyota
With the winter chill setting in and temperatures expected to plunge in the coming weeks, the risk of getting caught out by precarious driving conditions looms large. And, while it should come as no surprise that snow and ice will soon be on our roads, many motorists are unprepared for such conditions. With Steven Eagell Toyota, you can ensure you mitigate any driving issues this winter with our range of winter tyres.
Why buy winter tyres?
When the temperature drops below 7⁰C, the tread compound on regular tyres hardens and provides less grip. With icy road conditions significantly affecting the braking distance of regular tyres, the possibility of skidding, collisions and other road accidents is increased significantly
To combat the risks of driving in inclement conditions, winter tyres are developed to contain more natural rubber and advanced silica compounds. With this refined design, grip and handling are not compromised, and your safety on the road is enhanced.
But that’s not all. Winter tyres provide better mileage in comparison to regular tyres by up to 20% during the winter months. Peace of mind that you are safer out on the roads can be combined with the knowledge that you are enjoying the best-possible value for money from your fuel. With such benefits to be had, it makes sense to invest in great value winter tyres today.
Winter driving checks
Tyresafe, one of the UK’s leading tyre safety organisations, provides details on a number of tyre checks you should perform to stay safe when driving this winter:
- the pressure of your tyres when they are cold every four weeks
- your tyres for damage such as cuts, cracks or bulges, as these can lead to slow punctures and blow-outs
- the tread depth and air pressure of your spare tyre
