Oh no! Winter's back in Shropshire again. Time for Cold Weather Tyres?

And so '21 is rapidly on it's way out and the mercury is slowly creeping lower!

As is becoming the winter norm in recent years, it seems that winter in Shropshire now arrives Late January and can last until the end of March! The chances of a white Christmas are slim to none and we're more likely to see double figure temperature days over the festive period than sub-zero! (Okay, so blame us if it all goes wrong now!)

Do you stick with summer tyres now then, or do you change to winter/all season options? How long do you wait to make that decision? Until it's too late and you're snowed into your drive? Do it now and suffer a little loss in fuel consumption?

There's probably no right answer for any given motorist across the UK. It depends where you live, what you drive, how urgently you'd require your vehicle, and how likely the weather is to change rapidly where you live! As the temperature drops below 7C and gets closer to zero though, all sorts of things change with your summer type tyres! Cold, wet roads create lengthier braking distances and make accelerating away from junctions etc a carefully balanced procedure between grip and power! Ultimately, summer tyres start to lose a considerable amount of grip and performance the lower the temperature. All season and winter tyres, however, maintain far better performance at all cold temperatures and provide real reassurance and surefootedness throughout the winter months - irrespective of the weather.

Whatever you decide, we're always on hand across Shropshire to keep you safe into 2022! Our mobile fleet switch to full winter tyres during November. Hometyre. Your mobile winter tyre experts.
