All Season Tyres

Are all-season tyres right for you?

All-season tyres are designed to handle a wide range of UK driving conditions, from wet summer roads to colder winter mornings and occasional snow. They combine features of summer and winter tyres, giving you one set of tyres to use throughout the year.

When to choose all-season tyres

They can be a good choice if you want reliable year-round performance without changing between summer and winter tyres. They are particularly suited to drivers who experience typical UK weather rather than prolonged periods of extreme snow and ice.

Consider all-season tyres if you:

• Drive mainly on normal roads throughout the year
• Want good wet and cold-weather performance
• Prefer not to change tyres seasonally
• Occasionally encounter frost, snow or icy conditions

For drivers who regularly experience heavy snow, prolonged freezing temperatures or more extreme winter conditions, dedicated winter tyres may be more appropriate.

What is an all-season tyre?

All-season tyres are designed to provide balanced performance across a range of conditions throughout the year. They combine features of summer and winter tyres, helping provide grip and control in wet, dry, cold and changing weather.

Many all-season tyres carry the 3 Peak Mountain Snowflake (3PMSF) symbol, which indicates that the tyre has met the relevant performance requirements for use in severe snow conditions. If you’re looking for an all-season tyre for winter driving, check the sidewall for this marking.

Why choose an all-season tyre?

All-season tyres can be a practical choice for drivers who want one set of tyres for use throughout the year. They can provide a good balance of performance in typical UK conditions, including wet roads, colder temperatures and occasional snow, without the need to change between summer and winter tyres.

They can be particularly suitable if you mainly drive on normal roads and experience varied weather rather than prolonged periods of severe winter conditions.

If you regularly drive in heavy snow, prolonged freezing temperatures or more extreme winter conditions, dedicated winter tyres may be a better option. The right choice depends on your vehicle, where you drive and the conditions you regularly encounter.
