The Correct Tyres For Your SUV


SUV Studded tyres

When selecting tyres for you SUV, you need to go through the same selection process as for any other vehicle. You need to determine what are the key benefits you need from a tyre. If you don’t know that, it is quite difficult to buy new tyres. Tyre producers usually have a wide range of tyres and they all answer to different needs that customers want from their tyres.

Some things you might want to get, when buying a new SUV studded tyres or a SUV non-studded tyres, are low fuel consumption, low noise level and good performance on ice. The EU tyre label will actually indicate the tyre’s noise level as well as the fuel consumption, but it will not detail which tyre will be better on ice. It is good to know that the studded tyre will be a bit better on icy roads.

The EU tyre label is good for making decisions once you have narrowed the selection already. I would also use the Internet to make some proper research of good winter tyres for an SUV, read a few different tyre reviews and focus on the ones where the tests have been performed on ice and snow. See which tyres rank highest in several tests, preferably done in a few different markets.

Once I have done the research, I will check the EU tyre labels to see which ones rank high on the criteria that are included there. With this much research you can’t really go too much wrong as long as I chose a high quality tyre for my SUV.

Which tyres can you use during the winter season

Image
When you want to drive during the winter season and the winter will include snow and cold temperatures, you will need to have winter tyres . With winter tyres it is meant that they are tyres that are approved for winter use and have fulfilled the performance tests required on snow. It is not enough that they have the M+S marking that indicates Mud and Snow, which is not tested and will have significantly worse properties than those that have passed the performance tests and thus have the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) symbol on the sidewall of the tyre. So if you plan to drive in winter conditions you will have to choose one of the tyre types that have the 3PMSF marking and they are the dedicated winter tyres that come as either studded or non-studded or then you have the all year round tyres that are also non-studded. Basically all the ones that area approved for winter use can be used and will proved sufficient safety when driving during winter conditions. They will ...

Non-studded tyres provide you with excellent winter safety

Image
Winter tyres are available as both studded and non-studded. The studded tyres are the original winter tyres, which is why many older people see them as the only real alternative. The development has however gone forward and the non-studded tyres are nowadays as good as the studded on snow and it is only on ice that the studded have slightly better performance. So if you live in areas that have a lot of ice during the winter season, then the studded might be a better option. This can often be the case if you live in costal areas or next to very big lakes that tend to have more icy conditions. If you are not so bother with icy conditions, then you will be fine with non-studded tyres that have the advantage that they are allowed in all the countries and have fewer restrictions. If you travel between different countries you don’t have to worry as they can be used in all countries without limitation. This does not however make them ideal for summer use. These are tyres intended...

Don’t delay purchasing new tyres

Image
Tyres should always be kept in good condition and maintained properly. The tyres should also be changed as they wear out and the whole set should be changed at the same time to ensure that you have he same grip all around the car. The best way to obtain this is to rotate the tyres to even out any differences, which often can occur between the front and the rear tyres. If you change between summer tyres and winter tyres , this tends to be a good time to rotate the tyres. The time to change tyres to new ones often comes from them wearing out, which is defined as when they reach a tread depth of 4 mm. When you go below 4 mm you lose a lot of the tyres key properties. Your grip will decrease, your braking distance will be prolonged and you are more likely to skid when you take sharp corners. The risk for aquaplaning also increases. This is why it is important to know when you reach this 4 mm threshold. The truth is that the only way to know when you reach the threshold is by m...
