Winter Tyre Articles

Winter Tyre Articles

Because of the rise of the illegal part worn tyres. Then I think it important to explain “how to check the age” of your tyres. There are no strict rules about this subject. However it is thought that tyres start to deteriorate. Of course, when they are five year old and above.
This Winter Tyre Articles knowledge is specially important if you have recently purchased a second hand car. Or were tempted into buying some second hand tyres. Tyre date codes were changed in the year 2000.

Hence, from three digits to four digits. Therefore, pre-2000 tyres would be as such. say the age code was 261. Then this tyre was made in the 26th week of 1991. Moreover, after 2000 a tyre code of 5110, would mean that the tyre was made in the 51st week of 2010.

Part worn winter tyres are just as Dangerous ??

Nokian E-Line 2 Summer Tyres

In my early days of blogging,. Then, I used to write about almost every new tyre that the manufacturers released. Eventually, this began to grind me down.

Most new tyres were similar to the last one or claimed to be the one that was greener than the rest. As a result, I have been selling tyres for about forty years now. In the long run, tyres are just a consumer product.

This is certainly true to an extent. Tyre companies have had to come up with different solutions in recent years, mainly due to the pressure from car manufacturers.

In turn, car manufacturers have also been under pressure from governments to reduce the emissions produced by their cars. This pressure has effected every part of the car. Including the tyres.

Tyres were beginning to become smaller and fatter. Nokian E-Line 2 Summer Tyres

The 50 and 55 series tyres were introduced to fit some of the sportier cars on the market. Looks were the thing. If a car looked good on fat tyres, then that was good?

Things had to change for cars to become more eco-friendly. Tyres were being made from unusual materials to make them lighter in weight. Continental are developing the white sticky liquid from “dandelions” Strange, but dandelions have the same molecular buildup as latex rubber. Yokohama tyres are using “orange skin oils” in their tyre compound mix.

Therefore, a tyre that is lighter in weight and built with a taller overall diameter is much greener.

These tyres will go further. using less of the vehicle’s fuel. Because they are carrying less weight than there predecessors.  The European Union brought out a guideline to show which tyres were the best in each department.

The “A” is for fuel efficiency, the “B” is for wet cornering, and the “C” is in decibels for tyre noise. When the SUV market began to take off, there was a need to improve “Rolling Resistance” This was done by hardening the tyre compound.

Consequently, this had the effect of the tyres having poor cornering. Especially in wet weather. Experiments were carried out with the new materials, and “silica” would become the answer.

Now most tyres contain silica. This gives the tyres better rolling resistance and also helps the grip in wet weather situations. Companies were coming out with AA-rated tyres; the first were the Goodyear Efficient Grips, Pirelli Cinturato P7 Blue, and Bridgestone Ecopia EP001S tyres.

The latest addition to this group is the Nokia E-Line 2 tyres. Nokian E-Line 2 Summer Tyres

As a result, Nokia has added an excellent safety feature to the tyre: “Aramid” reinforcement, which is fitted to the range of SUV summer tyres .

This new reinforcement is fitted to the range of SUV summer tyres. Extremely durable Aramid staple fibres, which are also successfully used in bulletproof vests, stiffen and reinforce the sidewall to make it exceptionally resistant to wear and cuts. This is a major safety feature.

Especially with the growing number of potholes that are appearing all over the place.

These sidewalls are so tough that the Nokian Tyres Aramid Guarantee covers accidentally sidewall damaged tyres and provides you with a new, corresponding product free of charge.

You can check out if Nokian E-Line 2 Summer Tyres make an Aramid tyre for your car by clicking and putting your car details in.

Finally, here in 2021, Pellon Tyres will be Nokian tyre dealers for the Calderdale and Kirklees districts of West Yorkshire.

Forward to 2024 here at Pellon Tyres we are now members of Tyresafe.org to help promote safety.

This was great news for the tyre industry. But also great news for road safety. So at last the motorists have taken notice of the tyre experts and friends. Many garages and tyre dealers are beginning to increase stocks of snow tyres. But stocks are very low so telephone or go online to see what you can find.

Especially with smaller cars, silly when safety is at stake, perhaps next winter people should start buying their tyres at the end of summer. Thus, when prices are not much different to summer tyres.

It looks like the penny may have dropped as regards the drivers of SUV and Crossover vehicles. Indeed many SUV owners are also thinking about a set of spare wheels with snow tyres fitted. This seems to me to make the most common sense thing to do. Of course, you could go to a breakers yard for a set or pair of used wheels to keep the cost down.

SUV drivers really suffered in the harsh snowy winters of a couple of years ago. We noticed that the BMW drivers were all over the road. Skidding on their summer tyres. I think that some of these drivers thought that they were invincible in bad weather. As a result they were far from safe? The large diameter wheels on this type of vehicle meant that in bad weather then they lost control very easily.

Many of these SUV drivers did eventually fit or buy a set of spare steel wheels. This is the most effective way for using winter tyres and you would probably make a set last three winters or more. So, by changing them from your summer tyres from say November to March. Some tyre dealers have started storing customers winter tyres or wheels over the Summer months. Known as “tyre hotels” some for a small fee others may do it for free. Therefore, it may be worth asking, especially for those living in flats or drivers without a garage.

As mentioned before I have had many customers telephoning me. Thanking me for the advice I have given them about fitting snow tyres. One lady customer was so pleased that she came back and wanted a set fitting to her mothers car she was so impressed. The sting in the tail is that suppliers started to inflate prices due to demand. Especially internet companies from the continent. Another good reason why Nokian Targets SUV Tyre Market, for more sales.

Nokians were in great demand. They were always number one in European tyre tests and so were much sought after. Now of course Nokian tyres have built up a UK tyre dealer network. Pellon Tyres are the Nokian dealers for the Calder valley area of the UK.

This winter 2010/ 2011 has proved to be worse than the winter before. Indeed November of that year had been breaking records for the coldest and the amount of snow fall. A good reason why Nokian Targets SUV Tyre Market took off. Indeed in South Yorkshire the snow reached depths of two feet in some areas. Of course, stranding many motorists, the only people who could move had either 4×4 s or were fitted with winter tyres.

Garages and auto centres have noticed a massive increase in All-weather tyre sales this winter. However some motorists took the advice of some experts, who commented that, “motorists are becoming much more safety conscious” and “have bought new snow tyres this winter for the first time”. In fact there has been a rapid growth in the number of tyre companies. Due in part to the Nokian Targets SUV Tyre Market. Hence, that are developing the all-weather tyres. Including the Nokian Targets SUV Tyre Market.

Most notably Michelin tyres brought out the excellent CrossClimate tyres. This is a bit of an anomaly. because it is a summer tyre with winter tyre capabilities. This tyre carries the three peaks snow tyre sidewall emblem.
