For safety and performance reasons, it is important to adjust your tyres to the season. In summer you will prefer summer tyres (considered as regular tyres). For winter, you can have winter tyres fitted on your car. These winter tyres enhance the grip of your tyres on snowy roads. In some countries, seasonal Tyre change is mandatory at specific dates. We suggest to change your tyres when you reach the wear indicator on your tyres, or even before to prevent adherence loss and aquaplaning.

M+S tyres, whose acronym stands for “mud and snow”, bear these two initials on the sidewall of the tyre and are legally equivalent to winter ones. This type of tyre is also known as “all weather” and “all-season”. Winter tyres, also known as snow tyres, in addition to the letters M+S, also have a symbol moulded on the side: a three-peak mountain with a snowflake. These latter tyres offer distinctly higher performance both when braking and on snowy roads.
