Start with your vehicle manufacturer’s tyre requirements, then consider your winter journeys, typical loads and expected road conditions. A winter tyre must suit your vehicle and the weather.

• Tyre size: check the approved fitment for your vehicle, including any differences between front and rear sizes.
• Load rating: choose tyres that meet your vehicle’s requirements, considering its intended use and load capacity.
• Speed rating and approvals: follow the vehicle manufacturer’s guidance and check for any required approval markings.
• Winter specification: confirm the product is a dedicated winter tyre and check its 3PMSF snow-performance marking.
• Driving conditions: consider how often you encounter snow, slush and persistent cold, and whether seasonal tyre changes suit your needs.

If you are unsure which specification to choose, call our team before ordering. We can help you check the available options for your 4×4, SUV or van.

Choosing winter tyres for a van requires considering its load requirements alongside cold-weather performance. Whether you use your van for deliveries, work or touring, check the approved tyre size, load and speed ratings, and any required commercial specifications.

Are winter tyres worth it?

Winter tyres are worth considering if you regularly drive in persistent cold, snow or icy conditions. The decision depends on your journeys, local weather and willingness to change tyres seasonally. For generally mild winters, suitable all-season tyres may be a practical alternative.

Do 4x4s need winter tyres?

Four-wheel drive does not replace the need for tyres suited to the conditions. A 4×4’s ability to move on slippery ground does not indicate how well its tyres will brake or corner. Consider winter tyres if your journeys regularly involve snow, ice, or severe cold weather.

What is the difference between winter and all-season tyres?

Winter tyres are designed specifically for cold-weather conditions and seasonal use. All-season tyres combine summer and winter characteristics for year-round driving. Your expected conditions and the individual tyre’s specification should guide your choice.

Can you use summer tyres in winter?

Summer tyres are designed primarily for warmer conditions and are not a suitable substitute for winter tyres on snow-covered or icy roads. If such conditions are common on your journeys, consider dedicated winter tyres or an appropriate all-season option.

Can you use winter tyres in summer?

Keeping dedicated winter tyres fitted throughout summer is not recommended. Their cold-weather compounds can wear out more quickly in warm conditions, compromising handling and braking performance. Switch to suitable summer tyres when the season changes, or consider all-season tyres for year-round use.

What does the snowflake symbol on a tyre mean?

The Three Peak Mountain Snowflake (3PMSF) marking confirms that a tyre meets a standardised snow-performance test. It appears on dedicated winter tyres and on some all-season and all-terrain tyres, so check the product’s seasonal designation as well.

Do I need four winter tyres?

Fit winter tyres to all four wheels rather than mixing winter and summer tyres. This helps maintain consistent handling and grip. Follow your vehicle manufacturer’s requirements for tyre sizes, specifications and any differences between front and rear fitments.
