When it comes to tyres, it’s important to find the right fit for your car. Car wheels come in different sizes depending on the make and model of the car, so tyres have to do the same. If you’re wondering what tyres are best for your vehicle, then keep reading!

Matching The Type Of Car With The Tyre

The type of tyre you go for will depend on the type of car you have and what use you get out of it. For example, do you drive it in the city or around the countryside? What type of weather do you get and what’s your usage like when it comes to driving.

Everyone’s going to be different, and therefore it might alter the decisions you make when it comes to the types of tyres you’re looking at. Think about your own criteria as a driver and what you put your vehicle through. This will then give you more of a clear idea of what type of tyre you need to keep up with your driving style, usage or environment.

Make Sure To Balance Quality & Price

Once you’ve matched the right tyre with your type of car, you need to consider quality. Just like anything you purchase, you’re going to have three ranges to choose from. One will be budget, then mid-range and premium. As a rule, you’ll find that all tyres on sale within the UK will meet all strict safety standards, so you’re only picking from the very best of the best in terms of safety. The more you pay though, the more you get in terms of performance and longevity.  

When picking the right brands for tyres, it’s worth knowing which ones to look out for. For premium tyres,  Dunlop, Goodyear or Michelin would be a few good suggestions to start off with. For mid-range, it’s Yokohoma and Toyo and for budget-friendly, look out for GoWind or Autogreen. There are also lots of online tyre providers out there that can separate your tyres in terms of quality and price.

Seasonal Tyres

It’s worth looking at the options available when it comes to seasonal tyres. Just like the rest of the world, we have different seasons, and that can contribute to different weather conditions. In order to improve both performance and safety, it’s worth looking at both winter and summer tyres. If you’re looking for multi-seasonal tyres, then you’ll see the letters M + S on the tyre itself.

Summer tyres are known to last longer though than most universal tyres, and all-seasonal tyres are good for providing generally good performance regardless of the weather conditions. Some of the best all-season tyres are the Goodyear Vector 4Seasons Gen 3 and the Michelin CrossClimate+.

Remember that your car needs to have the right tyres in order to provide optimum performance but to also keep you and your passengers safe on the road. Use these tips to find the perfect tyres for you, whether you go for all-seasonal or two different types.
