Winter tyres provide superior traction and control in cold conditions, especially when temperatures drop below 7°C. They have deeper tread patterns and softer rubber compounds, which allow them to perform better on snow, ice, and wet roads. All-season tyres, while versatile and convenient, don’t match the specialised performance of winter tyres in extreme winter conditions, but they are a good option for milder climates where extreme cold is less common.
Even though the legal minimum tread depth in the UK is 1.6mm, it’s recommended to replace tyres once they reach 3mm, especially during winter. A deeper tread provides better grip on wet and icy roads, improving tyre safety. Regular checks at a tyre garage or a free inspection at Elite Garages can help determine if you need a tyre replacement.
