All Season Tyres for Shropshire Motorists?

Why not try All Season Tyres the next time you need to replace?

A Shropshire client asked if we could recommend new tyres for his Audi RS6. This car has a 4.0 litre twin turbo V8 pumping out 560bhp with a 0.60mph of 3.9secs!
That's a serious amount of power and the owner mentioned that it would struggle sometimes in the colder winter months to maintain grip with summer tyres. Equally, he didn't want to compromise the speed performance in any way and so a full winter tyre didn't really suit his needs. 

A few minutes of product searching later and we found that the Pirelli PZero Nero were available in an All Season tyre in the size required.

What's an All Season tyre, you may ask?! (Go on, ask!!!)

Well, there are summer tyres and winter tyres. A summer tyre is most suited for temperatures above 7C and will provide superb performance, grip and comfort at higher temperatures. However... at lower temperatures and sub-zero, the rubber would actually harden and dramatically reduce grip and performance and in some extreme weather cases, prevent use of the vehicle entirely.
Winter tyres perform best below 7C and maintain excellent grip in all conditions -even snow - regardless of the temperature drop. They will, however cause a degree of increased fuel usage and suffer accelerated wear in warmer temperature usage.
For many motorists, this means swapping to and from either set of tyres at the onset and close of winter.

In our temperate climate in the UK we live more often in temperatures from 0C to 15C and therefore always some 'in between' in terms of summer or winter tyres.

The Rise & Rise of the All Season Tyre Market

Global tyre manufacturing giant, Michelin identified the problem of this cross-over issue across a wide part of Europe and the US and researched, developed and then created the first true All Season tyre - the MICHELIN CROSS CLIMATE !!

Designed to offer a whole range of benefits without compromising any particular characteristic, these tyres have created a revolution In the market and now most of the other manufacturers have jumped on the production of similar tyres too such as: GOODYEAR 4SEASONS, NOKIAN WEATHERPROOF, PIRELLI P7 ALL SEASON and the BRIDGESTONE A001

Driver Feedback

Back to Mr RS6! Our friendly mobile tyre technician duly supplied and fitted x4 Pirelli All Seasons to this car on the clients drive at home in Church Strettonar Chester at the onset of last winter, and this was his feedback report a month later:

"Well I'm truly impressed. I was nervous about shifting away from what I'm used to on the car but you guys gave sound advice on these all season tyres. What a difference on cold, damp mornings already. Incredible grip but no loss of feel of cornering performance. I'm confident these will perform as I need them to in the hotter months too given a few decent days we've had so far. I'm converted!!"

Another happy customer! : )
